THe Council of State taking notice of the Tumultuous and Barbarous actings at the New-Exchange in the Strand in the County of Middlesex , upon the 21. and 22. of November last past , The same being accompanied with the drawing of Swords , discharging of Pistols , and such other high Misdemeanors as are scarce to be paralleld by the actings of any persons living under the protection of a civil Government , And which , in the effects thereof , produced not only a very great and notorious Violation of the publick Peace , but also the Murdering of one , and the Assaulting , Wounding , and Affrighting of many other of the People of this Nation , pursuing their ordinary Callings and occasions ; And for as much as the said Exchange is a place of publick resort and Trade , The Council have therefore thought it necessary hereby to declare their resentment of those proceedings , and their just Displeasure against the same . And as they intend vigorously to prosecute the Offenders , so , to the intent the like evils may be better prevented in time to come , They do hereby strictly require and charge , That no Person or Persons , of what quality soever , do presume , at the said Exchange , or any other like publick place , to Occasion , Encourage or Abet , any tumultuous Meetings , or hazard a breach of the civil Peace , by Drawing there , or in any other such place , any Sword or other Weapon , Discharging , Presenting or Bearing any Gun , or Pistol , or Firing of powder in Granados , or in any otherwise whatsoever . Of which Command , it will be expected that all Persons whatsoever take notice , and demean themselves accordingly , upon peril of being reputed , and dealt withall as disturbers of the publick Peace , Whereof a very strict account shall be taken : And all Iustices of the Peace , and other publick Ministers , are required carefully to perform their duties in this Behalf ; As also to use their utmost endeavours to prevent and restrain all immodest , and unhandsome demeanors of such as shall resort to the said Exchange , That so no just cause of offence may be given to sober mindes , nor any thing there acted dishonourable to Religion , or the Nation . Saturday 10. December 1653. At the Council of State at White-Hall , Ordered , That this Declaration be forthwith printed and published . John Thurloe Sec. London , Printed by Henry Hills Printer to the Council of State .
