Which being read his Excy was Pleased to Order the
Sherriffe to bring in Mr Philip Clarke which acordingly he did
And his Excy was pleased to tell Mr Clarke that he did not
detaine him in prison upon any prejudice to him but that all
the Country might see that he was leagally condemned &
Imprisoned because that upon a former Remission upon the
like offences he had spread abroade reports both false and
scandalous and during the tyme of his imprisonment he had
reported that at the provinciall Court he would produce suffi-
cient Reasons in Law to reverse the Judgemt and procure his
Liberty and being now the tyme of the prvinciall Court he
willed him if he thought hee neded not the Kings mercy to
produce, but if he Could not that after the End of the Court
upon his giveing Bond for security of the peace and his good
Behaviour he would Extend his Matys Mercy so farr to him as
to release him from his Imprisonmt
Then his Excy tould the house that he had recomended to
them to pay sevrall Gentn imployed for his Matys service espe-
cially Mr Dent Who he said was a Lawyer and thereby got his
Bread. And since they had not Considered his service he
Could not see him a Sufferrer, but thereupon made him a
prsent of a Bill of Exch: for which his Excys Bounty & Gener-
osity Mr Dent returned his Excy humble thankes
