Trial of Master Griffin Opens After Evidence Emerges
A commission of Lords and Commons in the Prince Lodgings will begin Master Griffin’s trial once evidence is presented. The Parliament passed an ordinance banning Whale Oye imports not fished from Greenland. Cavaliers seized near Oxford, four dozen prisoners transported by barges to Ladssandince, while efforts to retake Fortnes and Newark proceed. The House discussed subsidies for Prince Eleitor and subsistence funds, with a plan to pay annualHipend from the King’s revenue and to defray remaining costs from Sir Nicholas Crispe and Lord Cottington. The Lords sent a message about recalling Fairfax, and the Commons agreed to send it to the Lords for concurrence.
