of
a
Letter
from
His
Highnesse
Prince
CHARLES
,
To
the
Speaker
of
the
House
of
Peeres
.
Expressing
his
contentment
concerning
the
Votes
of
the
House
of
Peeres
,
for
a
Personall
Treaty
with
His
Royall
Father
.
With
His
desires
concerning
the
same
.
Charles
P.
RIght
trusty
and
right
well
beloved
Cousin
,
we
greet
you
well
.
Understanding
with
great
contentment
that
the
two
Houses
of
Parliament
have
resolved
upon
a
Personall
Treaty
with
His
Majesty
,
(
one
of
the
particulars
pressed
by
us
in
our
Declaration
of
the
29.
of
July
last
,
as
most
conducing
to
the
settlement
of
a
blessed
Peace
)
We
have
thought
fit
to
acquaint
you
with
our
sense
&
desires
concerning
the
same
,
to
the
end
that
they
may
be
communicated
by
you
to
the
House
of
Peers
from
us
.
First
,
we
propose
,
That
the
Treaty
be
appointed
to
be
in
such
place
,
and
in
such
manner
,
as
may
best
consist
with
the
Honour
,
Freedome
,
and
Safety
of
His
Majesty
,
whereby
the
agreement
to
be
made
,
may
not
be
blemished
with
any
face
of
restraint
.
Secondly
,
That
the
Treaty
may
be
betwixt
His
Majesty
and
His
two
Kingdoms
of
England
and
Scotland
,
so
as
the
matters
in
difference
may
equally
fall
under
the
consideration
of
all
persons
concerned
therein
.
Thirdly
,
that
during
the
said
Treaty
,
there
be
a
generall
Cessation
of
Armes
,
to
the
end
that
the
affections
of
the
people
,
though
engaged
in
severall
parties
,
may
thereby
be
prepared
to
meet
in
amity
and
brotherly
kindnesse
,
and
that
no
intervening
accidents
or
successes
may
disturb
the
proceedings
in
this
Treaty
.
Lastly
,
That
an
orderly
moderate
subsistence
during
the
Treaty
may
be
agreed
upon
for
all
Armies
and
Forces
now
on
foot
,
and
particularly
for
the
Scotish
Army
,
in
such
manner
as
may
be
with
the
least
pressure
on
the
Northerne
Counties
.
And
if
the
two
Houses
shall
think
fit
to
consent
unto
the
effect
of
what
we
now
propound
,
as
proper
to
render
this
Treaty
effectuall
,
we
shall
with
great
joy
and
alacrity
interpose
our
mediation
to
the
King
our
Father
for
the
obtaining
of
all
such
Concessions
and
Acts
of
Grace
,
as
by
the
blessing
of
God
may
most
conduce
to
a
firm
and
lasting
Peace
,
and
the
happinesse
of
His
Majesty
and
all
His
People
.
We
farther
desire
you
to
propound
to
the
House
of
Peeres
,
That
some
equall
course
may
be
speedily
setled
for
the
support
of
Us
and
the
Navy
with
us
,
whereby
we
may
be
enabled
to
protect
the
Trade
of
the
Kingdome
,
and
may
forthwith
discharge
all
Ships
and
Merchandizes
now
staid
by
Vs.
Given
under
our
Hand
and
Seale
from
aboard
the
Fleet
in
the
Downes
,
the
5.
day
of
August
,
in
the
24.
yeere
of
the
Raigne
of
the
King
our
Royall
Father
.
To
our
Right
Trustly
,
and
Right
well-beloved
Cousin
,
the
Speaker
of
the
House
of
Peeres
for
the
time
being
.
THE
END
.
