No sooner had they read it but presently they cryed out ye are discharged of the Court Mr. Cann desired that he might have liberty to speak a few words The Mayor told him he was quitted and desired him to forbear I pray you Sir said he give me the liberty which the Heathen gave Paul when he was before them But by no means would they suffer him to speak though he earnestly entreated them three or foure severall tunes But still told him the Court had discharged them and so there was nothing more to be said One of the Prisoners seeing they would not suffer Mr. Cann to speak asked of the Mayor wherefore they had imprisoned them above three weeks and now told them they had nothing against them If ye were men said he fearing God and hating Coveteousnesse you would not have dealt so with us but I see you are corrupt and your courses too For speaking thus the Mayor commanded that he should be stayed and to carry him to the Baledock where he was kept a while and having some of the Armies Declarations about him published at Muscleborrow in Scotland he dispersed them as he stood there With this Alderman Titchbourn was presently made acquainted and calls for the Prisoner asking him how he durst disperse such Seditious Books The other replyed how Seditious I am sure your self did once own them but that is nothing now they are Seditious and to prison he must go and indeed was carried to Newgate where he is kept a prisoner to this day I had ended here the Narrative but that the Weekly Pamphleteer occasions me to speak a little more In his Sessions News he tells us of eight men which were brought from the Counter called Fift Monarchy men the chief of which Faction were Wentworth Day and John Clarke both which were Indicted for speaking reproachfull malicious and scandalous words against his Highness the Lord Protector upon which they were found guilty c. Had there been any Conscience or honesty in the man he would not have abused the Nation as he hath done but given a true Intelligence As 1. have told us where they were taken and how but this he durst not do 2. How they were cast into prison without any offence or crime committed 3. Why had he not set down what their Reproachfull and Malitious words were and where they were spoken 4. How durst he say they were found guilty seeing the one was quitted by the Jury and the other had no Jury passed upon him nor any witnesses produced 5. Why had he not put it into his News how the Lord Mayor came with Halberts and Staves and pluckt a Minister out of the Pulpit as he was in the worship of God and having kept him more than three weeks in prison dismisseth him by Proclamation in open Court telling him that he had nothing against him But for this Needham Mr. John Goodwin hath given a sufficient Character of him He is saith he Faex hominum faex Causarum an infamous and unclean person next to the Hangman a man that curseth whatsoever God blesseth blesseth whatsoever God curseth this Witnesse is true But a person the more fit for the imployment he hath and the Master he serves Thus Reader thou hast heard the Narrative and as I told thee at first so I say again I have dealt candidly and faithfully in it It is true I might have been more large As how Brother Cann was likewise Indicted but the Grand Jury found not the Bill exhibited against him How the Mayor to excuse himself told some of our friends he was threatened to do it and could not be at rest till he had done it besides whereas they were kept twenty four hours in Prison without any Warrant afterward they sent a Warrant to the Counter and dated it a day before it was made All that they pretended in the Warrant was The Prisoners were disaffected to the present Government and had reviled the same and wanted security for their good Behaviour So likewise I have forborn to speak any thing of Alderman Titchbourn who was as we have good ground to report it the greatest stickler to have this Persecution raised against the Saints And was one of the three for there were but the Mayor and he and Alderman Atkins then on the Bench which would not suffer old Father Cann to speak a word at the Bar. But there is enough said to satisfie all such as desire to know the Truth in the love of it For others who are malicious and devise lies and falshood The Lord rebuke them FINIS Query Whether in point of Law or Conscience Judge Glyn Recorder Long or any of their Lawyers could give Sentence against Day and Clark they wel knowing that M Prin hath pubblished ten times more against the present Government than ever was laid to their Charge See his Book Demophilos the Appendex to the Premises * The Charge against him was June 14. 1647. at Albons enquire after it * I believe there are more than Twelve Witnesses yet living that will make good at least can what Cornet Day said as to the word Jugler some were present at the Sessions and desired that they might be cah'd There is Master Jesse Mr. Lanfeere Eman Middleton Captain Palmer Captain Sherman Mr. N●s● Mr. Johns George Barrer and severall others Trium Viri Preface Sect. 5.
