10. 3 _Jac. I_, _cap._ 5, 1606. Informers discovering any harbouring Popish priests or hearing mass shall have a third of the forfeiture due for the said offences, or if the whole exceeds £150, then £50. No Popish recusant shall come to court on pain of the fine of a hundred pounds, or to London or within ten miles of it, unless a tradesman, on pain of the same fine, half to the King, half to the informer. No Popish recusant shall practise law, medicine, or hold office in any court, ship, castle, or fort on pain of the same fine. None whose wife is such shall hold any office in the commonwealth unless he educates his children as Protestants and takes them to church. A married woman, being a Popish recusant, must conform a year before her husband’s death, or forfeit two-thirds of her jointure and be incapable of administering her husband’s estate. Popish recusants must be married in open church by an Anglican minister, and must cause their children to be similarly baptised on pain of the fine of one hundred pounds, to be divided between the King, the prosecutor, and in the latter case the poor of the parish. Popish recusants must be buried in the Anglican churchyard, on pain of a fine of twenty pounds from the executors. Popish recusants are disabled from presenting to benefices, and from being executors, administrators, or guardians. Two justices of the peace have power to search the houses of all Popish recusants, and of all whose wives are such, for Roman Catholic books and relics, to burn and deface them. By warrant from four justices all arms, gunpowder, and ammunition belonging to Popish recusants may be seized. 11. 7 _Jac. I_, _cap._ 6, 1609. Popish recusants may be required by justices of the peace (or if barons and baronesses by three privy councillors) to take the oath of allegiance. Penalty for refusing, Præmunire and imprisonment until the oath is taken. Those refusing shall be incapable of holding any office and of practising law, medicine, surgery, or any liberal science for gain. A married woman, being a Popish recusant, and not conforming within three months after conviction, may be imprisoned by warrant of two justices of the peace (or if a baroness, of a privy councillor or bishop) until she conform, unless the husband pay £10 monthly, or forfeit a third of all his lands. 12. 3 _Car. I_, _cap._ 2, 1627.
