❧ By the King . A Proclamation concerning certain Kilnes for the sweet and speedy drying of Mault and Hops at a small charge .

WHeras Our right trusty and welbeloved Cousin , THOMAS Earle of Berkshire , hath with much cost and expence , after many chargeable trials , found out and invented certain Kilnes , very usefull ( amongst other things ) for the drying of Mault and Hops , with Fire to be made of Seacole , Turf , Peat , or any other the cheapest and meanest Fuell : By the use of which Kilnes , the houses and dwellings of Our Subjects will be secured from the casualty of Fire , their Mault and Hops sweetly dryed without touch of smoak , much time will be gained , much cost and attendance spared , the future decay of Woods in great measure prevented , Straw saved and made Fodder for Cattell ; And besides all this the Mault so dryed will be in quantity more , in quality better , then Mault dryed with any other Kilne whatsoever .

And whereas We by Our Letters Patents , under Our great Seal of England , have granted unto the said Earle , his Executors , Administrators and Assignes , for the terme of fourteen yeers , the sole priviledge and exercise of the said invention within and throughout our Kingdomes of England , and Ireland , Dominion of Wales , and town of Berwick , and have thereby inhibited all persons of what condition or degree soever , other then the said Earle , his Executors Administrators and Assignes , and his and their Deputies , Servants , Workmen , Factors , and Agents , to use the said invention or any part thereof , or in any wise to counterfeit , resemble , or imitate the same without the speciall Licence , consent , and agreement of the said Earle , his Executors , Administrators or Assignes , first had and obtained in writing , under his or their Seal in that behalf , upon pain to have their Kilnes demolished , and under such further punishments as by Our Lawes may be inflicted upon the Contemners of our Royall Will and Pleasure .

Now taking into Our Princely consideration the great benefits of the said Invention , and being desirous to further the speedy execution thereof , for the good of Our said Kingdomes and people ; We are graciously pleased by this Our Proclamation , to publish the premisses to all Our loving Subjects , that so they may not only know the good , but compounding with the said Earle and his Assignes for his Licenses at a certain place in Fleet-street , neer unto Temple-barre , in Our City of London , appointed in that behalf , may also by vertue of the same Licenses , partake of the benefits of the said Invention .

And We are further pleased , and do hereby declare Our Royall will and pleasure to be ; That all and singular Ourloving Subjects , who shall be licensed by the said Earle , his Executors , Administrators or Assignes to use the said Invention or Kilne , to and for the drying of Mault , ( except such person or persons , as are or shall be allowed for common Brewers ) shall and may ( observing the Lawes and Statutes of the Realme ) continue their Art and Mystery of Mault-making , without the let , disturbance , or interruption of vs , our Heires , or Successors , or any the Officers or Ministers , of vs , Our Heires orSuccessors , and without any farther or other composition then such composition as shall be made with the said Earle , his Executors , Administrators or Assignes concerning the premisses : Any Act , Ordinance , Provision , Proclamation or restraint heretofore had , made , published , or provided to the contrary in any wise notwithstanding .

Given at Our Court at White-Hall , the eighth day of February , in the thirteenth yeer of Our Reign . ❧ God save the King .
