The Deplorable CASE of the poor People in the Mint, humbly Offered to the Charitable Consideration of the Honourable, the Commons of Great Britain in Parliament Assembled.  
THat through the Decay of Trade, and other great Losses, during the late and present War; as also through the Excessive Crowd of Foreigners, who have encroached on them in their respective Callings, have thereby failed: and to avoid perrishing in Prison, were forced to run into the Mint for shelter, where many of them lie on the Ground in a starving Condition for want of Houseroom, which makes their Condition as miserable as those of the Common side in Newgate.  
And whereas it's supposed, that Men of Substance come into the Mint, with a Design to Defraud their Creditors, which throws an Odium on the poorer sort, who Abhor such unjustifiable practices, and are willing to submit their Conditions to the strictest Examination.  
That by Relieving such, the Men of Substance will be exposed to the power of the Law. And if thought fit, a Clause may be inserted, wherein it shall be Praemunire in any Man to Resist a Legal Process.  
Wherefore they most humbly refer their unheard of Misery and Distress to this August Assembly as your Own poor Natives, and most humbly Pray, that out of your Charitable Goodness, you will please to allow them the full benefit of the Act for Relief of Insolvent Debtors in as ample a manor as if Actually Prisoners in the several Goals in and about the Cities of London and Westminster.  
And they shall ever Pray, etc.
