Proclamation to suppress Popish Regulars in Ireland
The Lords Justices and Council issue a proclamation charging Dublin’s Lord Mayor and all magistrates to pursue and arrest John Burke Drew Byrne Dr Nary and other Popish Regulars and to prosecute them under the King’s laws. The document cites past acts banishing Papists and orders officers to seek and seize officials and priests who exercise ecclesiastical jurisdiction without proper registration or oath.
