WHereas
in
the
LONDON
GAZZETTE
,
published
from
Thursday
May
the
6th
to
Munday
May
the
10th
1680.
The
Address
of
the
City
of
Norwich
to
the
Kings
most
Excellent
Majesty
is
printed
at
large
,
And
also
this
subsequent
Paragraph
,
in
these
words
,
viz.
The
Mayor
,
Aldermen
and
Common
Council
of
Norwich
have
put
their
Recorder
out
of
his
place
for
opposing
this
their
Address
to
his
Majesty
,
and
hindring
his
Service
.
THese
are
truly
to
certifie
and
inform
all
Persons
,
That
the
said
Paragraph
is
false
and
scandalous
,
For
that
,
the
said
Address
was
drawn
by
the
Recorders
own
hand
,
as
presented
to
his
Majesty
,
without
Alteration
,
Save
only
that
the
word
Recorder
being
made
part
of
the
Style
of
the
Corporation
,
was
by
the
Common
Council
obliterated
,
and
two
words
more
by
them
altered
,
which
made
no
material
Variance
from
the
Recorders
Draught
.
And
the
said
Recorder
is
well
known
to
be
a
Loyal
Person
to
His
Majesty
and
Government
both
in
Church
and
State
,
and
alwayes
forward
in
promoting
his
Majesties
Service
.
And
although
he
was
Voted
out
of
his
Recorders
place
(
after
the
Delivery
of
the
said
Address
)
by
the
Intemperate
Heates
of
a
confederate
patty
of
that
Assembly
:
upon
pretended
Articles
,
which
none
of
them
durst
own
,
and
without
hearing
his
Answer
to
them
:
and
which
as
yet
he
could
never
know
nor
see
,
and
are
now
lost
,
as
the
Confederates
pretend
.
Yet
the
Mayor
and
Senior
Aldermen
,
and
many
of
the
Better
Sort
of
the
Assembly
did
vigorously
oppose
the
Votes
of
the
other
,
well
knowing
he
had
better
deserved
from
their
Corporation
:
the
truth
of
all
which
is
ready
to
be
made
appear
,
and
proved
by
credible
Witnesses
,
and
loyal
and
obedient
Subjects
to
his
Majesty
and
Government
.
