Royal Proclamation on the Attainder of the Pretender
An English royal proclamation issued at Kensington proclaims the attainder of the pretender James III and offers a five thousand pound reward for apprehension in Britain or Ireland. It urges officers and subjects to arrest the claimant, with a royal pardon for those aiding him, and notes the proclamation dating to June 21 in the 13th year of the reign. The document also reports on the Barcelona siege and related European diplomacy, including discussions between Imperial and French plenipotentiaries and movements of Taverns and armies in Catalonia and Bavaria.
