WHereas complaint was made to the Parliament assembled in the seventh yeer of the Reign of Our late dear and royall Father , King JAMES of blessed memory , that by the repealing of an Act made in the fourth yeer of the Reign of King Edward the fourth of this Kingdome , Strangers and Aliens had and did daily buy up , and procure unto themselves the great and chief stuffe of English Horns unwrought , of Tanners and Butchers , and otherwise , and did daily convey and carry them beyond the Seas , and there made them into divers works , whereby many housholders of this Realm ( that lived and maintained their families , paid Subsidies , and other duties , by the benefit of their labours in working the said Horns ) became poore and decayed , and the Wardens of the Horners of the City of London disabled to search the Wares belonging to their Trade , and did likewise lose their government in their Company , as by the said Act of Parliament more at large appeareth . Now We being informed by the humble Petition of Our loving Subjects , the Master , Wardens , and Assistants of the Mystery of Horners of Our said City of London , that the excessive and abusive transportation of Horns unwrought is still continued , doe therefore hereby straitly charge and command all Our Subjects , as well Tanners as Butchers , and all others whom the same shall or may concern , that from henceforth they nor any of them shall sell , or put to sale , any English Horns unwrought , to any Aliens or Strangers , or send any of them unwrought over the Sea , or otherwise , contrary to the said Acts of Parliament , upon pain of Our high displeasure , and of such penalties and punishments as by the Laws and Statutes of this Our Kingdome of England , or by Our Prerogative Royall , shall or may be inflicted upon the Offenders for breach of Our said Laws , and contempt of Our Royall will and pleasure herein declared . For the better accomplishment whereof , We do hereby straitly charge and command all and singular Mayors , Iustices of Peace , Sheriffs , Bailiffs , Constables , Headboroughs , & all other Our Officers , Ministers , and loving Subjects , to whom these presents shall come , from time to time to be aiding , helping , furthering , and assisting to the said Master , Wardens , and Assistants , and unto all and every the members of the same Incorporation , and in no wise to hinder or molest them , or any of them , in the due execution of the powers , authorities , and priviledges by the Acts of Parliament aforesaid , or otherwise by any Our Letters Patents to them given and granted , as they and every of them will answer unto the contrary at their uttermost perils .
