920 The court had been asked on the 9th Jan. to present a petition to
the House "subscribed by many hands," the purport of which is not
set out in the City's Journal, but was considered to be of such
"high concernment" that the petition was referred to a committee
(Journal 40, fo. 310). There is little doubt but that this petition
was embodied in that presented to the House on the 15th.
