London City summons to Parliament on security and spies
The petition from Sheriffs Aldermen and Common Council of London asks Parliament for power to search for disaffection and spies. An ordinance for city fortifications and thanks to petitioners is noted. Lords and Commons discuss measures, including removal of offices, and a list of two Oxford Lords descendants is prepared for arrest if needed. A Swedish queen envoy seeks audience, a committee reviews church directory matters, and other parliamentary business proceeds.
