William Holland             Injunction was issued & by serving thereof in y.e provinciall

       Upon y.e whole, The Court, finding y.t divers suggestions in y.e
       Compl.ts petition, on w.ch he obtained y.e Injunction were false &
       likewise y.t y.e granting of y.e Injunction was illegall being in a
       Cause for his Maj.ties Interest upon a Bond payable to his Majestie
       & no more demanded by y.e attorney Gen.ll aforesaid for y.e King than
       y.e just Debt due & y.e Legall Interest for y.e time of y.e detaining

       due & proper Measures
