Precautions Against Spaniards and Loyal Address to the Crown
A 17th century record describes precautions to repel Spanish insults and defeat enemies at home and abroad. It notes a parliamentary motion to inquire into a conduit of ministers, followed by an unanimous resolution to lay the matter before the king. The king responds with a gracious message and thanks for loyalty. The Lords also send an address praising the throne and pledging support against invasion and the Pretender. The king replies with thanks for zeal and a pledge to defend the government.
