<P>_Whereas, by the direction from Us the Lord Lieutenant,

there was an exception of the Fire-arms belonging to Archvi&s;hops, Bi&s;hops,
Peers of the Realm, Priby Councellours, his Maje&s;ties Judges, and Officers
and Souldiers, Members of his Maje&s;ties Army: And whereas the end of
&s;eizing the &s;aid Armes was only, as to remove Armes out of the hands of
per&s;ons, who upon occa&s;ion might make ill u&s;e of them, to the
di&s;turvance of the Publick Peace, &s;o to pre&s;crive a cour&s;e for placing
Arms in the hands of Per&s;ons known to ve well affected to his Maje&s;ties
Government, and to the Peace of the Kingdom: We therefore have re&s;olved at
this Board, that in the re&s;titution of the &s;aid fire-arms, the&s;e rules be
ob&s;erved.</P>
<P>Fir&s;t, That every per&s;on to whom any of the &s;aid Arms
&s;hall be re&s;tored, &s;hall before &s;uch re|&s;titution made to him produce

the hand of the Lord Archvi&s;hop or Bi&s;hop of the Dioce&s;s wherein &s;uch
Per&s;on re&s;ides, and that grounded upon Certificate to be made to the &s;aid
Lord Archvi&s;hop or Bi&s;hop under the hand and Scal of the lawful Mini&s;ter
of the Pari&s;h wherein &s;uch Per&s;on re&s;ides as a|fore&s;aid, or &s;ome
other lawful Mini&s;ter within the Dioce&s;s that &s;uch Per&s;on did within
&s;ix moneths la&s;t pa&s;t before re&s;titution of the &s;aid Armes, receive
the ble&s;&s;ed Sacrament of the Communion, according to the form pre&s;cribed
by the Church of Ireland.</P>
<P>Secondly, That as to every other per&s;on that &s;hall de&s;ire
re&s;titution of his Arms, upon ap|plication made by &s;uch Per&s;on to us the
