FOr much as the Lords of His Majesties Privy Council, in pursuance of His Majesties Commands, signified to them by a Letter of the 7. of June, 1669. did confine several outed Ministers to partieular Paroches, with allowance[?] to preach, and exercise the other Functions of the Ministry with­in the same, and did deliver to them certain instructions to be keeped and ob­served, upon which they accepted the indulgence granted to them. And albeit [...]hese instructions have been frequently repeated and seat to these Mini­sters, [...]et diverse of them have contraveened the same, without any manner of reg [...]rd thereto: And whereas, by His Majesties Letter foresaid, it is left to the [...]aids Lords; to allow to these Ministers such parts of the Stipends, as the [...] should think fit, and that from time to time, the Council hath given Order and Warrands to the Heretors and others, lyable in payment of the Stipe [...]d, to make payment thereof as they saw cause, without which spe­cial Warrand[?], they could not, nor cannot, warrantably pay the same. Not­withtanding whereof, it is imformed, that several Heretors have payed, or inten [...] to pay these Stipends, without special Warrand and Order. The saids Lords do therefore Prohibite and Discharge all Heretors, Fewers, Lifer [...]nters, and others, lyable in payment of the Stipends of the Paro­ches where these Ministers are confined, to make payment of any part of the Stipend to them for the Cropt and Year 1677; and in time coming, without a special Order and Warrand from the Council, under the Pe­nalty of being lyable in Payment of the said Stipend again, to such as the Cou [...]cil shall appoint, and further Censured for their Contempt. And Ord [...]ins these presents to be Printed, and Published upon a Sabbath day, at the several Paroch Kirks, where the saids Ministers are confined, that no person pretend ignorance.
