London, are going about in that Parish to get Subscriptions for
destroying the Antient Annual Elective Vestry in that Parish, and
to set up instead thereof a Rump Vestry for life; wherefore all the
said Parishioners that are Rumpishly affected, may first consider
the Act of Parliament, and his Majesties late Proclamation about
tumultuous and factious Petitions for alteration of established
Lawes and Customs, which will direct in this case. And note, the
different effect of the said Vestries is this, That if any person
of the Annual Elective Vestry do unlawfully, or against the good
of the Parish, he may be turned out at the next Election, but the
Rump Vestry are above that Interruption_. Et postea iidem Nathaniel
et Willielmus ulterius machinantes et malitiose intendentes

et parochianos ejusdem parochiæ Sanctæ Bridgettæ et eosdem in
contemptum et ignominiam inferre et ducere postea scilicet
vicesimo die Aprilis, anno regni dicti domini regis tricesimo
secundo supradicto, apud parochiam Sancti Dunstani in occidente
