BY THE KING. A Proclamation for removing the Receipt of his Majesty's Exchequer from Westminster to Richmond. THE Kings most Excellent Majesty taking into his Princely consideration the great and dangerous increase of the Plague in and about the City of Westminster, where his Majesty's Receipt of Exchequer hath been hitherto kept, and willing as much as is possible to prevent the further danger, which might ensue as well to his own Officers, which are necessarily to attend the same Receipt, as to other his loving Subjects who shall have occasion either for receipt, or payment of moneys to repair thither: hath therefore taken order for the present remove of the receipt of his said Exchequer from thence to his Majesty's house at Richmond in the County of Surrey: and hath thought fit by this his Proclamation to publish the same, to the end, that all persons whom the same may concern, may take notice whither to repair upon all occasions concerning the bringing in, or issuing of his Majesty's Treasure at the receipt of his Exchequer. Willing and requiring all Sheriffs, Bailiffs, Collectors, and all other officers, Accomptants, and persons whatsoever, who are to pay in any moneys into the said receipt of his Majesty's Exchequer, or otherwise to attend the same, to keep their days and times at Richmond aforesaid, and there to do, pay, and perform in all things as they should, or aught to have done at Westminster, if the said receipt of Exchequer had continued there. And this to be done and observed until his Majesty shall publish and declare his further pleasure to the contrary. Given at the Court at Ricot the one and thirtieth day of julie in the first year of his Majesty's Reign of great Britain, France, and Ireland. God save the King. Printed at Oxford by I. L. and W.T. for Bonham Norton and john Bill, Printers to the Kings most Excellent Majesty. 1625.
