WHereas
the
Lords
and
Commons
are
informed
,
that
the
Towne
of
Manchester
,
and
some
other
parts
within
the
County
Palatine
of
Lancaster
,
have
for
a
long
time
beene
at
excessive
Charges
for
the
defence
of
such
as
are
well
affected
to
the
proceedings
of
Parliament
,
from
the
Injuries
,
Oppressions
,
illegall
and
exorbitant
practises
of
the
Commissioners
of
Array
,
the
Papists
,
and
other
Malignant
persons
within
that
Countie
;
and
now
when
their
power
doth
much
encrease
,
by
the
generall
rising
of
the
Papists
there
,
and
therefore
have
great
need
of
a
Supply
of
Strength
(
which
was
long
since
expected
)
yet
on
the
contrary
,
they
will
be
forced
to
disband
their
Garrison
of
Souldiers
,
which
they
have
maintained
as
long
as
they
are
able
,
and
so
expose
themselves
not
onely
to
the
Violence
of
their
Enemies
,
but
much
dishonour
the
Cause
,
and
weaken
the
good
Partie
,
unlesse
they
have
some
present
supply
of
Money
:
Therefore
it
is
Ordered
by
the
Lords
and
Commons
in
Parliament
,
That
such
Moneyes
or
Plate
,
as
M.
Thomas
Case
,
or
any
other
person
shall
under-write
,
for
the
defence
of
Lancashire
,
and
the
reducing
of
the
Malignant
partie
there
,
they
shall
have
the
publique
Faith
to
Be
repayed
,
with
satisfaction
after
eight
pounds
per Cent
.
And
that
Sir
Iohn
Wooleston
Knight
,
Alderman
Warner
,
Alderman
Towes
,
and
Alderman
Andrewes
take
such
subscriptions
,
and
issue

of

Countie
,
by
