WHEREAS the Lords Day , ( commonly called Sunday ) is of late much broken and prophaned by diverse disorderly people , in carrying and putting to sale diverse victuals and other things : Yet in regard of the inevitable necessity of milke for many Infants , sicke , aged , and many medicines , as well on the Lords day as in the weeke dayes , without which they cannot subsist ; by reason whereof , the sale of milke on that day cannot be avoided . And whereas the Milkewomen in the City of London , and places adjacent , have most earnestly petitioned , That Order might be taken aswell about the sale of Milke on the said Dayes , that they might neverthelesse injoy the Ordinances of God , and sanctifie the Sabbath in obedience to the Commands of God , and the pious Lawes of the Kingdome in that behalfe made . As also to prevent the great abuse and fraud which is used by divers single persons using the said calling , give great prices for their milke to the Milke-masters , ( those of the said calling ( which have Families to maintaine , and many Parish , and Church duties to pay ) not being able to give the like ) and to make up their money againe in retailing their milke , doe usually deceive the Common wealth , in selling by false measures , and vending flatten milke for new : It is therefore Ordered , That all and every person using the said calling of Milke-selling , and which are House keepers within the City of London and places adjacent , may repaire to the houses of their Customers , and serve them only in the morning of every Lords day with Milke , they not exceeding the houres of eight of the clocke ( in the Summer , ) and nine of the clocke ( in the Winter time ) of the same mornings , for the sale and serving thereof at the furthest ; And that no such retaylers of Milke , shall presume to cry or sell any milke during the residue of the said dayes , nor in the evening of the same . And it is further Ordered , That no Milkemasters within the City of London , and places adjacent , shall sell the Milke ( which their Kine doth yeeld in the evening of the Sabbath dayes ) to any of their retailing Customers whatsoever ; And that the same evenings milke ( from time to time ) of every Sabbath day , shall remaine and be unto the respective Milkemasters ( Owners thereof ) unto their owne Accompts , as their owne proper goods and Chattels , without ( any way ) charging the same , either to , or upon their ( then ) retailing Customer ; Or mollesting , suing or troubling them or any of them , for any losse or dammage that shall or may arise or grow thereby . And lastly , for the preventing of the inhancing of the prices of Milke , and the great deceite which is daily used as foresaid , by many idle and extravagant single persons in retailing of Milke . It is ordered , that no milkemaster whatsoever at any time or times hereafter , shall utter , vend , or sell their milke to any retailing single person or persons whatsoever : And if any person or persons shall be found offending in the premises : That then they be brought before me the Lord Mayor , or some other of his Majesties Iustices of the Peace , to the end they may receive such punishment as to Iustice shall appertaine . Given under my hand this nineteenth day of June , Anno Dom. 1643. And in the nineteenth yeare of the Reigne of our Soveraigne Lord King Charles , of England , &c. ISAAC PENNINGTON Mayor
