THE Heads of the proceed at the Committee appointed to sit, during the recess.  
TUesday the 12. of October, the Committee being met, there was a Petition against Sir john connyer's (Lieutenant General for the Horse in the late Northern expedition) by certain Troopers, wherein he was complained of, for false Musters, deduction of pay, and other things, whereupon the said Sir John was ordered to attend the Committee on Saturday following the 16. of this instant month.  
Then were divers other Petitions read, which were formerly delivered by certain Troopers, against other Commandors (which touched as well my Lord General as other Officers under whom they had served) the complaints being of the like nature, and the complainers being heard what they could lay to their charge; Mr. Pym then answered, that what concerned my Lord General they must complain to the Lords house for redress; But what concerned the House of Commons, they should be relieved in, with all convenient speed, praying their patience in the mean time.  
There was also a complaint made against Col. Hunks, who was ordered to attend on Saturday also.  
Likewise a complaint against Dr. Heywood of St. Giles in the Fields, for not suffering the order to be read in his Church, published by the house of Commons, concerning the pulling down of the Rails about the Communion Table, levelling the Church whereby some apposition was made, & he was ordered to attend on the Saturday following.  
Also a complaint against some Parishioners of St. Mary Woolchurch, who had defaced a very fair window, & other Emblem's of antiquity in that Church, without warrant, to the great prejudice and defacing thereof, and warrants were granted for the offenders therein.  
This day was report made to the Committee that Cornet Ayers was fled into France.  
On Saturday the 16. Sir john connyer's appearing before the Committee, the several complaints against him were read, unto every paricular of which, he pleaded Innocency, laying the fault (if any were) upon his inferior Officers, and that no pay had been stopped, but according to certain Orders (which were produced and read) that he said were drawn up by a general agreement, which they denied, pleading them to be an act of his own and some few other Commanders, and not by general consent. But many things being deposed against him, amongst which, that he made certain Troopers pay ten pounds for a horse supposed to be lost, which was afterwards found, but they had no restitution for it, whereupon he confessed he remembered such a thing was, but it was not his fault, they were not repaid their money again, and then entered into a long speech in defence of himself, that he had served in foreign wars, and always respected, but here contrariwise, where he strove to be most beloved, he was most hated, having been reproached both to his face and behind his back, and that undeserved, and that in that condition and quality wherein he was, his Reputation was as dear unto him in that place and quality, he served as a Soldier, as the greatest Princes in the world, and he deserved worthily to die, if those things objected against him, could be proved against him: And wherein he was calumniated he desired Justice against some particular men, especially against one Moor (who pleaded much against him) and others, and that he durst scarce go abroad, his life having been often threatened: Adding further, that the said Moor was imprisoned at York by my Lord General, for saying (upon the disbanding) that his Sword was as sharp as the Generals, or the said Sir john's, and if he could not be satisfied he would get his pay as he could, (or to that effect) which might intimate some desperate humour. But the said Moor said he was wronged in that, not denying he was so imprisoned, but it was upon a wrong intimation, and after long time of hearing, both sides desiring Justice, it being near two of the clock, and all the Committee risen but Mr. Pym and one more, It was put off till Tuesday morning at 9 of the clock, both Sir john and his accusers being ordered to attend.  
There was a Petition delivered this day against Mr. Booth Minister of St. botolph's Aldersgate, for some opposition by him about levelling the Church, who is ordered to attend on Tuesday next.  
There was likewise a warrant granted for Dr. Fuller, Preacher of Saint Giles Gripplegate, and some others, for opposing the Thursday lecture there, so are to attend on Tuesday next also.  
Likewise warrants were granted for Coronet Holt and others to attend on Tuesday next.  
Dr. Heywood appeared this day, and so did Coonell Hunks, but the time being far spent, they are ordered to attend on Tuesday next.
