War Preparations and Ordinances Discussed in Parliament
The House debated an ordinance to muster ages 16 to 60 in various counties for defense, raise horses, and assign costs under Manchester’s directive. Lords sent a message approving enforcement of earlier ordinances on sequestration of Papists and delinquents. Reports described Royal revenues totaling about two hundred thousand pounds, with only a portion spent, and plans to fund garrisons at Portsmouth and coastal forts, contingent on local discoveries and authorities.
