By the King . A PROCLAMATION Prohibiting the keeping of BARNWELL-FAIR near Cambridge . CHARLES R.

THe Kings most Excellent Majesty , out of His Princely and Christian care of His loving Subjects , that no good means may be neglected to stay the further spreading of the present Infection and Contagion , doth find it convenient to prevent all occasions of publick Concourse : And therefore being informed that there is at hand a Fair of special note , usually kept on the Four and twentieth of Iune , called Midsummer-day , at the said Town of Barnwell , unto which there is great resort out of many parts of this Kingdom ; the holding whereof at this time may be occasion of Danger and Infection to the Town and University of Cambridge , and other places , which by Gods mercy are now clear and free ; Hath ( with the Advice of His Privy Council ) thought good by this His Royal Proclamation , not only to admonish and require all His loving Subjects to forbear to resort for this time to the said Fair , but also to enjoyn the Lord thereof , and others interessed therein , to forbear holding the said Fair for this present year , upon pain of punishment , as for a Contempt , so much concerning the safety of the people , they shall be adjudged to deserve , which they must expect to be inflicted with all severity . And His Majesty doth hereby Declare , That the Lord of the said Fair , or any others interessed in the Profits thereof , shall not by this Temporary Restraint receive any prejudice in the Right of his Fair , or Liberties thereunto belonging ; Any thing herein before contained to the contrary notwithstanding .

Given at the Court at Whitehall the Fourteenth day of June , 1665. in the Seventeenth year of His Majesties Reign . God save the King .
