By the King. A PROCLAMATION, Requiring all Cashiered Officers and Souldiers of the late Army, to depart, and not come within Twenty miles of the Cities of London and VVestminster, until the Twentieth day of May next.

CHARLES R.

WHereas We have been lately informed that many Officers and Souldiers that were heretofore cashiered and turned out of the late Army (and not disbanded) being persons of desperate fortunes and designs, do now remain in and about Our Cities of London and Westminster, and have their daily meetings, and are (of late) grown so high and confident of effecting some wicked designs, that they spare not to give out words threatning mischiefs to Our Royal Person, and to these Our Cities of London and Westminster, at the times of the Solemnities now approaching; We taking the same into serious consideration, have thought fit, with the Advice of Our Privy Councel, to publish and declare, and do hereby publish and declare Our Will and Pleasure to be, That all and every person and persons heretofore Officer or Souldier in the late Army, Cashiered and turned out, and not Disbanded as aforesaid, which are not under Imprisonment, or other legal restraint, do on or before the Nineteenth day of this moneth of April, depart out of the said Cities of London and Westminster, and the Liberties thereof; And We do hereby charge and require them, and every of them, not being under Imprisonment or legal restraint at the time of the publication hereof, to depart accordingly, and not to return again, nor come within Twenty miles of the same Our Cities of London and Westminster, or either of them, from that time until after the Twentieth day of May next ensuing: And herein We shall expect from all persons concerned, a due and punctual submission and conformity at their perils, and upon pain of Our high displeasure: Willing and Commanding all Our Officers and Ministers to apprehend and seize the persons of all such as shall be found Offenders, by not departing at the time before limited, and them to bring before the Lords of Our Privy Councel, to be further proceeded against for their contempts, according to Iustice.

Given at Our Court at White-hall the 13th day of April, in the Thirteenth year of Our Reign.

GOD SAVE 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).
