In pursuance of the appointment of the House of Lords, for the hearing of
the cause depending between the towns of Lowestoft and Yarmouth, at the
bar of that house, on the seventh of June next following, notice thereof
was delivered to the bailiffs of Yarmouth, on the 30th May preceding,
requiring their attendance; but the inhabitants of Yarmouth pleading the
want of sufficient time to collect the necessary evidence upon such short
notice, petitioned the house, that the hearing of the case might be
deferred a short time longer; and accordingly their lordships gave
orders, that the said hearing should be postponed to the 20th of June
next ensuing; at which time all the parties concerned were to attend with
their counsel and witnesses, and to be otherwise duly prepared.
Die Mercurii, 5th Junij, 1661.
Upon the petition of the bailiffs of the town of Great Yarmouth, read
this day in the House, shewing that they were served with an order of
this Court, on the 30th of May last, for a hearing at this Bar on the
7th of this instant June, concerning a free trade of fishing between
the inhabitants of the town of Lowestoft, in Suffolk, and the town of
Yarmouth; it is ordered by the Lords in Parliament assembled, That
the said cause is hereby put off unto the 20th of this instant June,
peremptorily. And that then all parties concerned are to attend,
with their counsel and witnesses, and come fully prepared for a
hearing at this bar accordingly.
