VVHereas it appears by the Examination of John Totty, one of Officers at Mace in the City of Dublin, taken upon Oath before the Lord Mayor of the said City, That on the first day of this instant April, the Examinant being commanded, went with the Magistrates and other Officers, pursuant to an Order of this Board to a Mass house on the Merchants-Key in this City, where they found a Priest & many People assembled together, and that the Lord Mayor of this City ordered them to forbear their Meetings, or having any Publick Mass, for that We the Lord Lieutenant & Council had given Divers to the contrary, and that the Examinant taking the said Priest by the shoulder, and pulling him away, the said Priest cryed out, that he would be revenged for it. And that the same night betwixt nine and ten of the Clock, the Examinant was met near the Thollsel in this City by two men whose names the Examinant knowes not, who forcibly seized on him, and took him by the throat, and there almost strangled him, and that immediately after, three or four men more came with Clubs, and there with knocked him on the head with several blowes, whereby he fell flat to the Ground, and left the Examinant on the Ground for Dead, one of them stamping on the Examinants face with his foot, after he had received many bruises, and that one of them with his Rapier run the Examinant into his left side, & said, you Son of a whore, you rogue, will you pull down the Holy Altar. And whereas We conceive it necessary, that diligent and strict enquiry should be made after the persons who committed the said outrage, whose insolence therein, We cannot but look upon, not only as a high breach of the Peace, but also as a hainous contempt of his Majesties Authority. We the Lord Lieutenant and Council have therefore thought fit hereby to publish & declare, That in case any person shall at any time within the space of three Months after the date hereof, discover to Us the Lord Leiutenant, or to any the Members of this Board, or to the Lord Mayor, or any of the Justices of Peace, of this City, any of the said offendors who so beat or abused the said John-Totty, so as they may be apprehended and brought to justice, such person making such discovery, shall upon conviction of the said persons so discovered by him for the said offences, receive for his reward the summe of Twenty pounds; and if any of the persons who were guilty of the said offence, shall make the like discovery of any other of the said offendors, he shall likewise receive the said reward of Twenty pounds for such his discovery, together also with his Majesties pardon for the said offence by him therein committed.

Given at the Council-Chamber in Dublin the 14th day of April 1679.

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).
