Lords Pass Bills on Woollen Manufactures and Exchequer Reforms
The House debated the Woollen and Silk Manufactures bill and the Exchequer Bills bill in committee, with amendments to both. A new writ was ordered for a Knaresborough burgess, and further bills on Mariners, parish church restoration, and duelling were engrossed or amended. April 6 saw an address to the King on Navy reports and passage of the silk import ban. April 7 a petition raised questions of Shrewsbury inheritance amid the ongoing Lords bill.
