A Message sent from the Committee at york, to the House of Commons, concerning all the Passages that happened there since the 5. of july, to this present.  
THe Subjects of England hath more distractions and crosses befallen them now of late, then any Subjects that are governed by any Prince in the vast world, for never was Subject so tormented with fears, as now, and all within ourselves, being at peace with all Nations, have wee had so long a time of glorious peace, that we are now grown weary of it: Oh woe be to those creatures that are Enemies to the peace? Who may wee name these to be, but the malignant party, which ever since this present Parliament assembled, have sought the utter ruin and destruction of them and the whole kingdom. This malignant party, are those which are adherents to the See of Rome, otherwise their proceedings and actions could never be so vehement against the true Protestants of this kingdom, as may appear by the actions of Mr. Henry Hastings, and divers others, who contrary to the Parliaments command, sought all ways possible might be, to hinder the proceedings of the Militia, to the great fear and terror of the Subjects in those Countries, the which hath caused many troubles and distractions to arise in this kingdom.  
Therefore the Parliament out of their judicious care, taking the actions of those persons into consideration, thought it a greae breach of Sr. Henry Hastings, to come with so many armed men into Liecester-shire, to the great amazement and terror of the whole County, and that it was a bold attempt of them to presume so far to proclaim himself high sheriff, likewise to proclaim the earl of Stamford Traitor, it being a great abuse to his Honourable person, whose name is made glorious to the whole world.  
Therefore they resolved to draw up a Charge against him for his high misdemeanours, which having done, the said House sent up to the Lords, to have a conference therein, and after some debate, it was red and assented to, wherein they resolved that the said Mr. Hastings should be forthwith sent for to answer to those particulars which they had laid to his charge.  
Also the Parliament having taken into consideration the high Crimes, and misdemeanours which the earl of Lindsey, and the Lord Savill, have committed since their going to york, resolved and concluded, that if his Majesty denied their coming, as he did Becket the great Papist of york, which report the Messenger that went for the said Becket, related to the house, how that the cavaliers rescued him from him, and after he had his prisoner restored again to him, by the means of the Committee at york, was afterward sent for to his Majesty, and Answer returned, that when the Parliament gave him Iustice against Sir John Hotham, he would deliver Becket to them, then there was a conference with the Commons, at which they moved the Lords to join with them in sending for the said two Lords, and if they were refused as was Becket, to fetch them by force, and that both Houses would take into consideration, what is fitting to be done, for the security of the whole kingdom, and the contempt of the Orders of Parliament, to which the Lords agreed there being a Committee of 14. Lords and 34. of the House of Commons appointed for the same purpose.  

SIR,  
VPon the last meeting at York there was the Messages between the King and Parliament red, but it was done with much applause of the Kings Messages, but when any thing of the Parliaments came to be red, it was done with much hooting and reviling, the Parliament seeing that vil'd abuse made His Majesty acquainted with it, but some were so bold as to say openly; That the Parliament men should set their Houses in order, for many of them should shortly have their Heads of, With many more reviling and abusive speeches.  
There came also divers thousands of Free-holders to this City, but they received a command from the King not to come to Court.  
Sir, What dangers this poor Country lies under, we humbly refer it to you to judge, not taking upon us to deliver any opinion.  
Your assured friends and servants. 

Hugh Cholmly and  
Sir Philip Stapleton.
