CACO-ETHIA Των ΠΑLΑΙΩΝ + + v. Barringt. 136 many examples.

In 22.d E. 3. The Commons preferred a Petition
to to the King in Parliament, "That commandment be given
to the Nobles in no wise to maintain a common
Robber or Thief". The King's answer was that an answer had already been given in to Petition of the like nature in the last Parliament. Prynne's Abr.t of the
Records f. 70. No 6.

When turning to the proceedings records of the preceding
Parliament, we find a Petition to the following which is thus
effect abridged —
"Whereas Murthers, Cuilleurs des genta, Robberies, Manslaughters, & other Felonies are done
and committed without number, & so favoured
by Pardons, and procuring deliverance, that
the mis-doers and maintainers have no care or fear
of Law, that the King will ordain such
remedy by Statute, that such misdoers & maintainers
by no such means as aforesaid, may
be comforted and embolden'd" —

The King's Answer is — Touching Pardons
hereafter to be granted, the King will advise with

The Answer is, "The King will call the great
persons of to him, & will move this Article to
them, & with their advice will ordain such
remedy as shall be pleasing to God & man. f. 52, 53. No 7.
And again immediately after — "That to the intent
that the Laws may be duly & indifferently
ministerd, the King will be pleased
to increase the Fees of the King's Barons,
Justices, Ministers, and Officers, & that they
may be sworn to take nothing — s.b.

And again f. 53.No 14. That "Whereas
in a Statute made Ao 1mo of the King, it is
contained that none of the Lords Chan Councellors,
or Ministers shall maintain any
plea or quarrel defending in Court or
elsewhere within the Realm; in which
Statute no scorn is in certain ordained
for the offenders, that in such case certain

his council so to do, that no such Charter
shall be granted, unless it be for the honour
& profit of him & his people; & touching
pardons granted heretofore, he will advise
with his Council of such allowance as shall
be thereof made. It. f. 6e No 53
And again another f. 64 No 62 almost in
the same words, to which the same answer
is given as before.

And prior to both these Articles, there is one
which seems to be that alluded in that 1st
cited "That no great person do maintain
no Traitors, Felons, Robbers, Trespassers against
the Peace, Barrators, Maintainers,
Confederators, Embracers of business, Conspirators,
Champertors, & the like, by which
falsities the Peace is disturbed, & the Laws
frustrated, & that certain Ordinances be made
for punishment of such Offenders

pain may by Parliament be provided + + in the Book it is "proved".
