Citizens and Burgesses must reside in their towns
A long defense of Henry V’s statute requiring that Knights of the Shire and all town representatives be resident within the borough or shire they serve. The writer argues that only real citizens and burgesses should elect local MPs, not outsiders, to protect trade interests and local grievances. The piece critiques peerage influence in elections and contemplates why local commoners should represent their towns.
