WHereas Complaints have been made unto us, by divers Sutlers, and others, carrying Provisions& Necessaries to their Majesties Army; that they have been put to great charges and delays in obtaining Passes for that purpose, and have been stopped in several places on their journey, on pretence of Guards, Tolls and other Duties, pretended to be due for their Liberty of passing there, which if not paid, several of their Goods have been taken from them, to their great Discouragement, and the hindrance of Supplying the Army. We purposing to give all fitting relief and encouragement to the said persons, do hereby publish and Declare that all their majesties good Subjects who shall during this present Campaign be desirous to carry Provisions or other things to the said Army, and have not already a Pass from us to that purpose, may freely apply to us for the same, and for the obtaining thereof, and all things relating thereunto, shall pay to Our Secretary's Clerks the sum of twelve pence only, and no more, and no other person shall demand or receive any sum of Money, or other thing whatsoever for the same, or by colour thereof. And every such person having once obtained Our Pass, shall by virtue thereof, be received and allowed to carry Provisions and any other things to the said Army, during this present Campaign, without molestation, or being obliged to renew the same. And We do strictly prohibit all Officers Civil and Military, and all other Their Majesties Subjects, that they do not at any time during this present Campaign, demand, exact, receive, or take from any person having already obtained Our Pass for carrying Provisions or other things to Their Majesties Army, or which shall hereafter obtain the same, any sum or sums of money, or other thing whatsoever, for renewing such Pass or Passes, or for such persons free passing with their Goods, Carriages and Horses, over any Bridge, or through any Guard, Pass, Town, Parish, Mannour, Barony, or County, in their journey to the said Army, or return from thence, upon pretence of any usage, custom, or other cause or occasion whatsoever, as they will answer the contrary at their utmost perils.
