A fragmentary report presents a series of dramatic resolutions about punishment, suppression of dissent, and procedural control by a secret body. It outlines hiring houses for initiations, importing troops, extracting witnesses, and harsh penalties, including mutilation and forfeiture of liberty, as imagined by a controlling committee. The London section notes Charlesworth and Cox being humiliated on the pillory, with mobs attacking them, and Edward Walpole returning from France to London.
