8. MAJOR-GENERAL CHARLES WORSLEY _Chester, Lancaster, and_ (succeeded by MAJOR-GENERAL _Stafford._ TOBIAS BRIDGES). 9. LAMBERT (with MAJOR-GENERAL _York, Durham, Cumberland_ ROBERT TILBURNE and MAJOR-GENERAL _Westmorland,_ CHARLES HOWARD as his deputies). _and Northumberland._ 10. MAJOR-GENERAL JOHN DESBOROUGH. _Gloucester, Wilts, Dorset,_ _Somerset, Devon, and_ _Cornwall._ 11. MAJOR-GENERAL JAMES BERRY. _Worcester, Hereford, Salop,_ _and North Wales._ 12. MAJOR-GENERAL DAWKINS. _Monmouthshire and_ _South Wales._[1] [Footnote 1: Council Order Books, as digested by Godwin, IV. 228-229.] The powers intrusted to these Major-Generals and to their subordinate officers in the several counties were all but universal. They were to patrol the counties with horse and foot, but especially with horse. They were to guard against robberies and tumults and to bring criminals to punishment. They were to take charge of the public morals, and see the laws put in force against drunkenness, blasphemy, plays and interludes, profanation of the Lord's Day, and disorderliness generally. They were to keep a register of all disaffected persons, remove arms from their houses, note their changes of residence, and take security for the good behaviour of themselves, their families, and servants. All travellers and strangers were bound to appear before them, and give an account of themselves and their business. They were to arrest vagabonds and persons with no visible means of living. Above all, they were to see to the execution of a certain very severe and far-reaching measure which the Protector and the Council had determined to adopt in consequence of the late Royalist insurrection and conspiracy.
