A Proclamation for the better discouery and apprehension of those Malefactors, who were Actors in the late insolent Riots and Murders committed in Fleetstreet, London, vpon Friday, the tenth day of this instant moneth of Iuly.

WHereas vpon Friday, the tenth day of this instant Moneth, vpon the occasion of an Arrest then made by the Sheriffes Officers of the Citie of London, diuers insolent Assaults and Tumults were made and raised vpon the Constables and Watches of the Citie, whereupon much bloodshed, and the barbarous murther of diuers of Our louing Subiects hath insued, and those insolencies so long continued, and at the last grew to such height, that there was an open and violent resistance and opposition made against Our Lord Maior of London, and Our Sheriffes of Our Citie, assisted with some of the trained Bands necessarily drawne forth to suppresse those outrages, which were committed rather in Rebellious then in a Riotous manner; We hauing taken these affronts to Justice, and to Our publique Officers and Ministers, into our Princely consideration, and hauing already giuen a strict Charge and Command for the due examination of these so bold and audacious attempts, and finding by the returne of those, whose paines Wee haue imployed in that Seruice, that very few of the principall Actors can by their industry bee yet taken or discouered, and, Wee bring resolued, in a case of this extraordinary qualitie and consequence, to proceed according to the strict rule of Iustice, against all those who shall bee found to bee the Offendors, that by their examples others may hereafter be warned not to dare to runne into the like:

[Page]To the end therefore that those malefactors may not be concealed, and so escape their due punishments, These are to Will and Command, all and euery Our Louing Subiects whom it may concerne, especially the Chirurgions, in, or neere Our City of London or Westminster, who haue, or since that day had, any hurt or wounded men in their Cure, that they and euery of them vpon their allegiance to Us, and the duty they owe to the Publike peace of Our State, and vpon paine of such punishments, as by Our Lawes, or by Our Prerogatiue Royall ran be inflicted vpon them, for their neglect herein, doe foorthwith vpon publication of this Our Royall pleasure, discouer to the Lord President of Our Priuie Councell, or to one of Our principall Secretaries of State, the names of all such persons as they know, or by probable coniecture, doe suspect to have beene Actors in any of those late tumults, and the places of their abidings, and that they, and all other persons whatsoeuer, doe their best indeauours, to detaine or apprehend them, or cause them to bee detained or apprehended without expecting any further or other Warrant in that behalfe, and by name that they apprehend, or cause to bee apprehended, wheresoever they shall be found, Captaine Vaughan, Henry Stamford, and one Ward, an Ensigne, that so they and euery of them, may bee ready to answere such matters, as on Our behalfe shall be obiected against them; Hereof all and euery persons, whom it may concerne in their seuerall places, are to take notice, and carefully to obserue the same, at their vttermost perills.

Giuen at Our Court at Whitehall, the eighteenth day of Iuly, in the fift yeere of Our Reigne, of Great Britaine, France, and Ireland.

God saue the King.

Creation

Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

Editorial practices

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).
