Fragmented royal decree on judges and prisoner exchanges
A garbled 17th century Royal Proclamation excerpt discusses suppressing unlawful assemblies and authorizing magistrates to execute warrants. It references the fever of fear during the Civil War era, the sequestration of prisoners, and exchange negotiations with Oxford captives, including Captain Haltex. It notes Parliament's authority, the Lord General, and calls for peace negotiations or continued arms.
