WHereas We are credibly Advertised , That many Seditious persons who are given to change , and of desperate Designs , not having any sense either of former Intestine Distractions , the memory whereof should endear and put a value upon that miraculous Peace and Settlement by Our Restauration , nor being moved by Our reiterated Acts of Grace and Clemency , wherein We have studied and delighted to abound towards all Our Subjects , nor with the fresh and late exemplary Iustice upon Traiterous Offenders , have Pernitiously and Traiterously of late attempted to Imbroyl again this Our Kingdom in Bloud , by Complotting and Contriving an Insurrection and Rebellion against Our Person , Crown and Government , wickedly proposing to themselves a Prey and Booty in the Publick Confusion . And whereas Richard Oldred of Duesbury , William Dickenson of Gildersome , Jeremy Marshden of Hughall , 〈◇〉 Marshden his brothers , David Lumley of Hutton-Roides , Simeon Butler of Bingley , John Atkinson , called the Stockener , Christopher Dawson of Leeds , Edward Wilkinson of Hounslett , 〈◇〉 Fisher late Preacher of Sheffeild in Our County of York , 〈◇〉 Richarson , commonly called Doctor , Captain Mason of the Bishoprick of Durham , Captain Jones of London , 〈◇〉 Palmer Minister near Nottingham , Captain Atkinson , and Nicholas Locker of Scegby in the said County of Nottingham , being persons ingaged in the said Horrid and Treasonable Conspiracy , and being conscious of their own Guilt , have fled or withdrawn themselves from Iustice , and do privately lurk and obscure themselves in places unknown , whereby they cannot be apprehended and brought to a Legal Tryal for their Offences . We therefore have thought fit , by and with the Advice of Our Privy Council , to publish the same to all Our loving Subjects , not doubting of their care and forwardness in their Apprehension . And We do by this Our Proclamation Command and Declare , That all and every the persons before named , within Fourteen days after the Publication hereof , personally appear and render themselves to some of Our Privy Council , or of the Iustices of Peace , or Sheriffs of Our Counties of England and Wales , under pain of being proceeded against as Guilty of High Treason , according to Law . And We do hereby Require and Command , aswell all and singular Our Iudges , Iustices of Peace , Mayors , Sheriffs , Bayliffs , Constables and Headboroughs , as also all the Officers and Ministers of Our Ports , and other Our Subjects whatsoever , within Our Realms of England , Scotland , Ireland , or Dominion of Wales , and all other Our Dominions and Territories , to be diligent in Enquiring and Searching for the said persons in all places whatsoever , aswell within Liberties as without ; Whom , or any of them , if they shall happen to take , Our further Will and Pleasure is , That they cause them so apprehended , to be safely carried before the next Iustice of the Peace to the place where he or they shall be Arrested ; whom we straitly Command to Commit them and every of them to Prison , and presently Inform vs or some of Our Privy Council of their said Apprehension . And We do hereby straitly charge and forbid all Our loving Subjects of what degree or quality soever , That they do not presume to entertain or harbour any of the persons aforesaid , but they use their utmost endeavours to apprehend them . And We do hereby Declare and Publish , That if any person or persons after this Our Proclamation published , shall directly or indirectly conceal , harbour , keep , retain or maintain the said persons , or any of them , or shall contrive or connive at any means whereby they or any of them may escape from being Taken or Arrested , or shall not use their best endeavours for their Apprehension , aswell by giving due Advertisement thereof to Our Officers , as by all other good means , We will ( as there is just cause ) proceed against them that shall so neglect this Our Commandment , with all severity , according to Iustice , and other demerits .
