<HEAD>THE CASE OF The Officers, Mini&s;ters and At|tendants of his Maje&s;ty's late De&s;cent Train of Artillery, Commanded by Sir <HI>Martin Beckman.</HI></HEAD>
<P>HIs Maje&s;ty, by Warrant under his Royal Sign Manual, bearing date the 28th of <HI>February,</HI> 1691/2, was graci|ou&s;ly pleas'd to con&s;titute and appoint them to be in their re&s;pective Stations in the &s;aid Train; and they accordingly &s;erv'd in <HI>Flanders</HI> in the Army commanded by the the then Duke of <HI>Lein&s;ter,</HI> until <HI>October</HI> 1692, at which time they were re-manded into <HI>England,</HI> and paid until the la&s;t of that month.</P>
<P>By Order of the Principal Officers of his Maje&s;ty's Ordnance, they gave con&s;tant attendance at the <HI>Tower,</HI> and were mu&s;ter'd from time to time, until the la&s;t day of <HI>March</HI> 1693, rendring an account of the &s;everal places of their abode, and were re|&s;train'd from being ab&s;ent without leave, that they might con|tinually be in a readine&s;s, in ca&s;e his Maje&s;ty's Service &s;hou'd at any time require their immediate appearance.</P>
<P>They have not yet receiv'd any Allowance or Pay for their Service the &s;aid five Months, from the fir&s;t of <HI>November</HI> 1692, to the la&s;t of <HI>March</HI> 1693, notwith&s;tanding &s;everal Foreigners, who were upon the &s;ame foot and e&s;tabli&s;hment, have been fully paid and clear'd the &s;ame, as appears by divers Warrants directed to the Earl of <HI>Ranelagh</HI> for that purpo&s;e, the Copies of which they can produce.</P>
<P>Several of them, in performing the Duty of their Attendance, and for want of Pay, were compell'd to contract Debts, which are very urgent upon them, and for which &s;ome are now lying in Pri&s;on, to the great detriment of them&s;elves and Families; which they may ju&s;tly attribute to their not duly receiving their Pay, and by being confin'd by &s;uch attendance from following other lawful Occupations, whereby they might have earn'd &s;ub&s;i&s;tance.</P>
