and
other
Places
,
great
quantity
of
New-found-land
Fish
,
and
other
sorts

Victuals

are
very
necessary
;
and
that
you
have
been
and
are
put
to
great
Charges
,
and
are

troubled

I
do
Will

Command
to

That

such
a
Price

it
shall
not
be

Officers
which
receive
my
Royal
Rents
:
and
if
the
Ships
wherein
the
said
Fish
is
brought
be
great
Ships
,
that
they
cannot
go
up
the
River
,
and
that
the

be
put
into
Barques
or
Lighters
,
the
Judge
of

Waiters

And
I

also
Command

cause
there
shall

Cause
or
Action
commenced

Owners
thereof
,
or
persons
which
shall
sell
it
,
nor
they
shall
not
be
Imprisoned
,
nor
Informed
against
:
And
forasmuch
as
the
Administers
of
the
Customs
,
and
others
of
divers
Duties
which
are
received
for
the
Fruits
and
Merchandises
,
do
use
when
any
body
doth
Inform
,
to
have
the
person
Imprisoned
which
sheweth
himself
to
be
party
,
whereby
happeneth
to
Men
of
Trade
great
Discredit
,
Charges
,
and
Vexations
;
My
Will
is
,
and
I
do
Command
,
That
in
the
said
Information
there
shall
be
onely
proceeded
against
the
Merchandises
,
and
not
against
the
Persons
;
but
they
shall
be
permitted
(
as
I
do
permit
them
)
to
make
,
and
they
shall
make
their
Defences
in
the
said
Vexation
.
And
forasmuch
also
,
as
according
to
an
Article
of
the
said
Peace
,
which
maketh
mention
of
Matters
in
Religion
,
notwithstanding
that
in
some
Suits
they
should
declare
whether
they
be
Roman-Catholicks
or
not
,
excusing
themselves
to
give
Faith
to
others
which
they
take
as
Parties
or
as
Witnesses
;
I
do
also
Command
,
That
concerning
this
Matter
there
be
not
done
,
nor
there
shall
not
be
done
,
any
thing
with
those
which
are
born
in
the
said
Realm
,
but
onely
that
the
said
Condition
be
kept
and
accomplished
,
and
that
no
such
Questions
be
put
unto
them
,
giving
unto
the
Oaths
which
they
shall
take
in
Judgment
Court
,
and
without
,
the
same
Faith
and
Credit
which
should
be
given
in
case
they
were
Spaniards
;
and
herein
you
shall
not
receive
any
trouble
or
molestation
,
nor
there
shall
not
be
any
grievance
done
unto
you
:
And
whereas
for
the
justification
of
some
Causes
,
the
Judges
and
Justices
do
pretend
that
the
Merchants
of
the
said
Nation
should
exhibit
Books
of
their
Contractions
or
Dealings
;
I
do
Will
and
Command
,
That

Books
of
the
Merchants
of
the
said
Nation
shall
not
be
taken
out
of
their
hands
for
any
cause
whatsoever
,
but
they
shall
keep
and
shew
them
in
their
Houses
,
to
take
out
the
Parcel
which
shall
be
appointed
,
and
others
shall
not
be
demanded
of
them
,
nor
there
shall
not
be
any
other
Papers
taken
from
them
,
upon
Penalty
that
he
which
shall
do
here
against
,
shall
be
punished
according
to
Law
.
And
forasmuch
as
the
Merchants
do
dispatch
the
Merchandise
from
the
Custom-house
of
the
said
City
of
Sivil
of
all

a

readily
Enter

Agreement
,
for
Composing

remaining

interrupt
a

happen
to
arise
about
determining

desire

even
of
Questions

;

so
utterly
to
cut
off
the
Hope

Expectation
of
those
,
whoever
they
are
,
that
may
think
it
their
Interest

,
mutually
Agreed

both
Resident

about

both
which
Ambassadors
sent
their
Petitions
to
our
Imperial
Stirrup
,
and
made
Request
,
That
the
said
Dutch
Merchants
,
coming
into
our
Dominions
,
should
pass
under
their
Banner
;
which
Request
of
both
Ambassadors
was
granted
under

;
notwitstanding

Son
of
Cigala
,
Captain
of

,
now
deceased
,
as
Admiral
,
and
practised
in
Maritime
Cases
,
having
advised
the
Imperial
Majesty
,
that
it
was
fit
and
convenient
that
the
Dutch
Nation
should
be
assigned
to
the
Protection
of
the
Ambassador
of
England
,
and
that
it
should
be
so
written
in
their
Capitulations
:
which
Opinion
being
by
all
the
Viziers
approved
,
by
Express
Order
,
and
Imperial
Authority
,
it
was
Commanded
,
That
the
Dutch
Merchants

there
being

Ambassador
at

,
sent
from
the
King
of
England
with
Letters
and
Presents
,
which
were
most
acceptable
,
the
said
Ambassador
did
make
Request
,
that
certain
other
necessary
Articles
should
be
added
,
and
written
in
the
Imperial
Capitulations
;
of
which
the
first
was
,
As
in
Times
past
,
in
the
Days
of
one
of
our
Forefathers
of
famous
memory
,
Sultan
Soliman
Han
,
there
was
granted
a
certain
Capitulation
and
Priviledge
,
That
the
Merchants
of
the
Spanish
Nation
,
Portugal
,
Ancona
,
Sevilla
,

,

,
and

of

,
might
safely

go
and
come
through
all
the
Places
of
our
Dominions
,
and
Trade
and
Traffick
;
granting
unto
them
moreover
,
that
in
any
part
of
our
Empire
they
might
establish
their
Consuls
:
But
it
being
that
every
Nation
apart
was
not
able
to
defray
the
Charges
and
Maintenance
of
a
Consul
,
it
was
then
left
to
their
will
and
choice
,
to
come
under
the
Banner
of
such
Ambassador
or
Consul
as
should
best
like
them
,
provided
that
it
were
an
Ambassador
or
Consul
of
a

in
Peace
and
Amity
with
our
High
Port
;
upon
which
Grant
,
and
other
Priviledges
given
them
,
there
were
often
granted
divers
Imperial
Commands
and
Constitutions
,
being
so
desired
by
Merchant-Strangers
,
who
of
their
own
will
elected
to
Trade
under
the
Banner
and
Protection
of
the
Ambassador
and
Consul
of
the

of

whilst
in

in
these
Parts
,
they
had
refuge
to
the
Banner
and
Protection
of
the
English
Consuls
:
It
seemeth
that
the
French
Ambassador
by
some
means
having
a
new
gotten
into
their
Capitulations
,
that
the
said
Merchant-Strangers
should
come
under
their
Banner
,
did
endeavour
to
force
them
in
all
Scales
to
their
Protection
;
for
which
cause
the
Controversie
was
again
renewed
and
referred
to
our
Divan
,
or
Great
Council
,
which
after
a
due
Examination
,
and
a
new
Election
,
permitted
to
the
will
and
choice
of
the
said
Merchants
,
they
again
did
desire
to
be
under
the
Protection
of
the
Ambassador
of
the
King
of
England
,
notwithstanding
it
being
made
known
to
the
Imperial
Port
,
that
as
yet
the
French
Ambassador
did
not
desire
to
molest
the
said
Merchants
,
nor
to
force
them
under
his
Protection
,
the
first
Article
written
in
the
French
Capitulations
,
that
the
Merchant-Strangers
should
come
under
their
Protection
,
was
by
the
Imperial
Command
made
void
and
annulled
:
And
to
the
end
,
that
according
to
the
ancient
Custom
of
the
said
Merchant-Strangers
,
they
should
always
come
under
the
Banner
and
Protection
of
the
Ambassador
or
Consuls
of
England
;
and
that
never
hereafter
they
should
be
vexed
or
troubled
by
the
French
Ambassador
in
this
Point
,
the
said
Ambassadors
of
his
Majesty

England
having
desired
that
this
Particular
should

Since
which
time
of
our
Forefathers
of
famous
memory
,
Sultan
Mahomet
Han
,
sent
one
his
well
desired
Ambassador
,
a
Person
of
Quality
,
to
this
high
Port
,
to
Confirm
this
Peace
,
Articles
and
Capitulations
:
which
Ambassador
did
declare
,
That
oftentimes
there
were
to
divers
Persons
Imperial
Commands
granted
,
surreptitiously
procured
contrary
to
the
Tenor
and
Articles
of
the
Imperial
Capitulations
;
which
being
without
our
knowledge
presented
to
our
Judges
and
Governors
,
and
the
Dates
of
such
Commands
being
more
fresh
than
those
of
our
Imperial
Capitulations
,
the
Judges
and
Ministers
do
put
in
Execution
the
private
Commands
prejudicial
and
contrary
to
these
Imperial
.
To
the
end
therefore
,
that
for
the
time
to
come
,
such
Commands
shall
not
be
accepted
of
any
,
but
that
the
Imperial
Capitulations
might

observed

according

the
sincere
meaning
;
the
said
Ambassador
demonstrating
the
sincerity
of
his
Majesty

his
Request
herein
to
our
Imperial
knowledge
,
which
was
most
acceptable

In
conformity
thereunto
it
was
expresly
ordered

That
all
such
Commands

already
have
been

shall
hereafter
be

which
are

be
repugnant

of

whatsoever
such
Commands
shall
be

when
Presented

In
the
time
of
the
Inauguration
of
Sultan
Osman
Han
in
the
Imperial
and
high
Throne
,
the
King
of
England
did
again
send
a
famous
and
Noble
Gentleman
,
his
Ambassador
,
with
Letters
and
Presents
,
which
were
most
acceptable
.
And
the
said
Ambassador
desiring
in

Name
of
his
King
and
Lord
,
that
the
ancient
Capitulation

Articles

,
should
be
of
him
renewed

and
the
ancient
Peace
and
Amity
anew
fortified
and
established
,

his
Request
was
to
the
said
Sultan
Osman
most
acceptable
.
And
the
ancient
Capitulations
,
Articles
,
Priviledges
,
herein
written
and
confirmed
,
and
the
long
since
contracted
Peace
and
Amity
by
him
promised
and
accepted

XLVII
.
After
whom
in
like
manner
,
in
the
days
of
Sultan
Osman
Han
,
the
King
of
England
having
again
sent
unto
this
high
Port
his
Ambassador
,

all
good
Terms
of
Friendship

good
Correspondence

And
desiring
that
the
ancient
Capitulations
,
and
all
the
Articles
from
his
Ancestors
,
and
from
himself
formerly
granted
to
the
English
Nation
,
might
be
anew
confirmed
,
and
the
Peace
and
League
long
since
between
both
Parties
contracted
and
ratified
;
and
that
some
other
Articles
very
necessary
might
be
added
to
the
Imperial
Capitulations
,
and
divers
others
already
granted
might
be
renewed
,
amended
,
and
in
a
better
Form
explained
,
which
his
Request
and
Demand
was
very
acceptable
unto
him
;
and
in
conformity
thereunto
,
the
ancient
Imperial
Capitulations
,
and
all
the
Articles
and
other
Priviledges
in
them
often
confirmed
,
and
the
Peace
,
Amity
,
and
good
Correspondence
contracted
in
the
times
of
his
Ancestors
,
Grandfather
and
Father
,
and
himself
confirmed
,
were
again
by
Sultan
Osman
then
ratified
,
established
,
promised
and
accepted
,
whereupon
by
him
there
was
express
Command
given
,
that
for
the
time
to
come
the
Tenor
of
his
renewed
Capitulations
should
be
of
every
one
observed
,
and
that
all
men
should
be
careful
and
respectful
to
the
said
Peace
and
Friendship
established
and
contracted
on
both
Parts
,
and
that
no
man
should
presume
to
violate
,
or
to
do
any
Act
contrary
thereunto
,
which
Ambassador
did
often
declare
that
the
Caddees
,
and
other
of
our
Ministers
,
in
many
Places
and
Provinces
,
contrary
to
the
Imperial
Capitulations
and
Will
of
the
Imperial
Majesty
,
have
imposed
and
laid
divers
Taxes
,
Burdens
,
and
Moneys
upon
the
said
English
Nation
,
and
those
under
their
Banner
,
for
which
cause
as
it
is
above
declared
,
it
being
found
necessary
to
make
additions
of
some
new
Articles
in
the
said
Imperial
Capitulation
,
of
which
the
said
Ambassador
made
declaration
in
Writing
,
and
presented
the
same
to
the
Imperial
Presence
:
The
said
Sultan
Osman
Han
with
his
Imperial
Hand
and
Seal
did
presently
give
express
order
and
command
,
That
in
the
time
to
come
all
those
Articles
and
Priviledges
which
were
already
in
the
Imperial
Capitulations
,
and
those
Articles
which
now
are
therein
by
our
order
newly
added

Subjects
and
Slaves
duly
obeyed

observed
,
according
to
the
sincere
meaning
of
this
our
Imperial
Capitulations

In
as
much
as
it
is
publickly
known
,
That
certain
Pyrates
of
Tunis
and
Algier
,
contrary
to
our
Imperial
Capitulations
,
Mind
and
Will
,
do
take
and
rob
in
the
Seas
the
Ships
,
Merchandise
,
and
Men
,
Subjects
to
his
Majesty
of
England
,
and
of
other
Kings
and
States
in
League
with
this
our
Imperial
Port
,
to
the
great
Damage
and
Injury
of
the
said
English
Nation
,
We
do
Command
,
Tunis
,
Algier
,
Modon
,
or
Coron.
Our
Beglerbegs

shall

Being

that
in
our
Dominions
many
of
our
Customers

other
Officers
in
Aleppo
,
contrary
to
the
Imperial
Capitulations
,
under
colour
of
taking
Custom
and
Rest
upon
Silk
of
the
English
Merchants
,
have
violently
taken
from
the
said
Merchants
a
great
Sum
of
Money
.
And
whereas
in
the
Imperial
Capitulations
it
is
written
,
per
cent
.
for
Custom
and
Rest
,
have
taken
from
that
Nation
a
great
Sum
of
Money
lately
under
Name
of
Rest
,
wherefore
we
Command
that
this
Business
shall
be
examined
,
and
that
the
said
Money
be
restored
back
,
and
for
the
time
to
come
,
the
ancient
Custom
may
be
kept
;
and
that
this
Nation
shall
only
pay
as
the
French
and
Venetian
do
,
and
that
never
be
taken
one
Asper
by
Name
of
such
Imposition
.
L.
Whereas
the
English
Merchants
Resident

ordinarily
buy
divers
Goods

can
Lade

away
upon
their
Ships
,
and
do
pay
unto

Customers
the
Custom
of
the
said
Goods
,
receiving
a
Bill
,
or
Acquittance
to
have
paid

own
Warehouses
:
In
the
mean
time
before

can
Load
and
send
away
the
said
Goods
;
it
happens
,
that
either
the
Customer
dies
,
or
is
removed
from
his
Charge
,
and
the
new
Customers
will
not
accept
of
the
said
Acquittances
,
but
pretend
another
Custom
,
troubling
and
molesting
of
them
many
ways
.

buy
in
Angora

And
after
being
desirous

Ship
them
away

In
the
time
of
the
happy
memory
of
my
Uncle
Sultan
Murat
Han
,
the
King
of
England
sent
his
Ambassador
Sir
Sackville
Crow
Baronet
,
with
his
Present
and
Letter
,
which
was
received
in
good
part
;
and
the
time
of
his
Embassie
being
expired
,
Sir
Thomas
Bendish
arrived
to
Reside
at
the
Port
,
with
his
Present
and
courteous
Letter
,
the
which
was
in
like
manner
well
accepted
;
And
the
said
Ambassador
having
tendered
the
Imperial
Capitulations
formerly
granted
,
that
according
to
the
ancient
Canon
they
might
be
renewed
;
It
is
hereby
again
commanded
,
that
all
the
Points
,
and
particular
Articles
therein

be
observed

maintained

LV.
And

payed
the
Custom
for
their

the
Custom-house

LVII

And
whereas
in
the
Imperial
Capitulations
it
is
expressed

LVIII

Also
whereas

Imperial
Capitulations
,
per
cent

for
the
Custom
of
their
Goods
,

no
more
;
the
Customers
notwithstanding
do
pretend
to
take
Custom
for
their
Chequeens
and
Dollars
;
and
to
take
more
Custom
then
their
due
for
their
Raw
Silks
,
per
cent
.
which
unjust
Exactions
have
been
heretofore
rectified
and
redressed
with
an
express
Hattersheriffe
.
But
being
now
again
informed
that
the
said
English
Merchants
are
as
before
wronged
,
by
reason
that
the
Customers
do
value
and
estimate
the
Goods
of
the
English
Merchants
more
then
they
are
worth
;
and
though
the
Customers
are
to
have
but
Three
per
cent
.
yet
by
an
over
valuation
of
the
Goods
they
take
from
them
Six
per
cent
.
And
the
Servants
of
the
Custom-house
,
under
pretence
of
small
Duties
and
Expences
,
wrongfully
take
great
Sums
of
Money
from
them
;
And
a
greater
number
of
Waiters
being
put
Aboard
the
English
Ships
then
heretofore
have
been
used

in
specie
,
of
the
same
Goods
,
the
Customers
shall
not
refuse
,

accept
the
same
.
And
being
desired
by
the
English
Ambassador
that
the
above
specified
Abuses
and
Injuries
should
be
rectified
,
We
do
Command
,
That
contrary

the
Imperial
Capitulations
the
English
Merchants
be
neither
in
the
foregoing
Particulars

in
any
other
manner
troubled

Priviledges
unjustly
infringed

whose
end
may
it
terminate
with
bliss
;
did
arrive
with
his
Presents
,
and
with
all
sincerity
and
affection
was
accompanied
with
Letters
amply
expressing
the
good
Friendship
and
Correspondence
;
and
that
abovesaid
Ambassador
hath
Presented
the
Capitulations
that
they
might
be
renewed
according
to
the
Canon
.
And
that
some
Articles
of
great
consideration
which
were
before
in
the
Capitulations
,
may
be
more
punctually
observed
,
the
said
Ambassador
did
desire
that
they
might
be
again
renewed
,
and
more
plainly
expressed
in
the
Imperial
Capitulations
.
His
Request
was
graciously
accepted
;
one
of
which
Points
is
this
.
LIX
.
That
the
Gallies
,
and
other
Vessels
of
the
Imperial
Fleet
,
departing
the
Dominions
of
the
Grand
Signor
,
and
meeting
on
the
Sea
with
the
Ships
of
England
,
they
shall
in
no
wise
give
them
molestation
,
nor
detain
them
in
their
Voyage
,
nor
take
from
them
any
thing
whatsoever
,
but
ought
always
to
shew
to
one
another
good
Friendship
,
without
doing
the
least
Damage
.
Algier
,
Tunis
,
and
Tripoli
,
meeting
English
Ships
which
Sail
from
one
Port
to
another
,
ought
not
to
take
from
them
any
Money
or
Goods
,
upon
pretence
that
their
Ships
Transport
Enemies
Goods
,
and
thereupon
Search
them
,
and
with
this
colour
molest
,
and
detain
them
from
prosecution
of
their
Voyage
,
so
that
only
at
the
Mouth
of
the
Castles
,
and
in
the
Ports
where
the
Searchers
belonging
to
the
Customs
usually
come
Aboard
,
their
Goods
shall
be
Examined
,
but
on
the
Sea
they
shall
be
liable
to
no
farther
Search
or
Inquisition
.

for

according
to
the
former
Custom
,
and
the
Imperial
Capitulations
,
whether
the
Goods
be
brought
by

or
by

.
And
though
the
Customers
and
Farmers
,
upon
the
arrival
of
the
Goods
at
the
Scale
,
to
give
molestation
and
trouble
to
the
English
Nation
,
pretend
that
the
Goods
of
the
Growth
and
Manufacture
of
England
ought
only
to
pay
Three
per
Cent.
but
Goods
brought
from
Venice

Places
,
are
obliged
to
pay
more
,

occasion

wherefore
in
this
Point
let
the
Imperial
Capitulations
be
observed
as
in

Times
,
and
our
Officers
ought
in
no
wise
to
permit
the

other
Effects
be
taken
out
of
the
hand
of
such
a
Mussulman
,
and
consigned
to
the
Ambassador
;
to
the
end
that
he
may
transmit
them
to
whom
they
do
belong
,
that
by
this
means
no
Goods
of
other
men
may
remain
in
the
hands
of
such
a
Mussulman
,
and
let
not
this
be
hindred
by
the
means
of
any
Caddi
,
or
other
Judges
or
Ministers
.

Any
of
the
aforesaid
English
Nation
buying
Chamblets

if
they

Export
the

Places
,
after

paid
Three

.
for
the
Custom
of
such

they
Export
,
let
them
not
be
molested
for

;
and
there
neither

such
Demand
one

by
the
means
and
help
of
an
Assistant
or
Chiaus
,
he
that
recovers
the
Debt
shall
pay
no
more
than
what
is
paid
to
other
Caddi's
,
which
is
two
Aspers
only
,
and
not
one
Asper
more
.
VIII
.
There
passing
good
Correspondence
between
Us
and
the
King
of
England
;
out
of
regard
of
this
good
Friendship
,
We
do
grant
that
two
Ships
lading
of
Figs
,
Raisins
or
Currants
may
be
yearly
Exported
for
the
use
of
his
Majesty's
Kitchin

there
be
not
a
dearth
and
scarcity
of
such
Fruit
in
the
Country

we
allow
to
be
bought
with
their
Money
that
Export
them

,
or
any
other
Scale
or
Port
of
our
Empire
,
paying
Three
per
cent
.
Custom
,
which
being
paid
,
no
person
shall
give
to
them
that
lade
them
,
any
molestation
or
hindrance
.
IX
.
It
being
represented
to
Us
,
that
the
English
have
been
accustomed
hitherto
to
pay
no
Custom
nor
Mezan
for
any
Silk
they
bought
in
Smyrna
(
that
of
Prussia
and
Constantinople
excepted
)
viz.
for
the
Silk
of
Giorgia
,
Persia
,
or
Armenia
;
if
really
there
is
any
such
Use
and
Custom
,
and
the
thing
is
not
of
prejudice
to
the
Empire
,
let
there
in
Smyrna
for
the
future
be
demanded
neither
Custom
nor
Mezan
for
the
said
Silk
,
but
to
the
English
Merchants
let
all
kindness
be
used
and
shown
.
And
the
Ambassador
having
made
instance
to
Us
that
the
foregoing
Articles
might
be
put
into
the

his
Request
is

of
my
Imperial
Command

which
We
command
so
long

the
Second

England
(
whose

may
it
terminate
in

)
maintains

Correspondence
with
Us
,
according

what
has
been
maintained
with
our
Ancestors
,
and
to
which
We
on
our
Part
are
not
wanting
,
with
all
tenderness
entertaining
this
Friendship
.
And
we
do
Swear
and
Promise
by
Him
that

We
