Adventura and in the Estates of the said William Courten Deceased Sir Edward Littleton Baronet and Sir Paul Pyndar Knight Deceased that We would take their Case into Our Princely consideration We out of the just sense We then had and still have of their unjust Sufferings in that business both by Our own Letters under our Sign Manual to the States General of the Vnited Provinces and by Sir George Downing Knight and Baronet Our Envoy Extraordinary to whom We gave Especial Command so to do required satisfaction to be made according to the Rules of Justice and the Amity and good Correspondence which We then desired to conserve with them firm and Inviolable And whereas after several Addresses made to the said States General by Our said Envoy and nothing granted effectual for relief of Our said Subjects whom We take Our selves in Honour and Justice concerned to be satisfied and repaired We lately commanded the said Sir George Downing to intimate and signify to the said States that We expected their final Answer concerning satisfaction to be made for the said Ships and Goods by a time then prefixed and since elapsed that We might so govern Our selves thereupon that Our aforesaid Subjects might be Relieved according to Right and Justice And yet no Satisfactory Answer hath been given so that We cannot but apprehend it to be not only a fruitless endeavour but a prostituting of Our Honour and Dignity to make further Application after so many Denials and Slightings And whereas Iohn Exton Doctor of Laws Judge of Our High Court of Admiralty of England upon Our Command to certify to Us the value of the Losses and Damages sustained by the said William Courten and Partners whose Interest is now vested in Our loving Subjects Sir Edmond Turnor Knt. and George Carew Esq and
