Letter from L. Chancellor of Ireland, concerning Proceedings there, in Consequence of the Order of this House in the Cause.

"Dublin, November 18th, 1699.

"My Lord,

"I have had the Honour lately to inform your Lordship of what passed in the Chancery here, relating to the Order of the most Honourable the House of the Lords, concerning the Bishop of Derry; but, believing the Lords would be willing to have all the Satisfaction possible in that Matter, I have troubled your Lordship with the enclosed Letter from the Sheriffs of Derry, giving me an Account of the full Execution of my Order, and the peaceable and quiet Possession the Society are now in, of all the Lands in Question. I am likewise to inform your Lordship, that the Bishop hath not, by any Motion or otherwise, made the least Attempt in the Court of Chancery, this Term, to alter the State of that Matter. There is likewise the same entire Obedience given to the Order relating to my Lord Meath, for the Possession of Lands in Tipperary. If there remain any Thing farther to satisfy the Lords, I have received His Majesty's Leave, and hope to be in London in a very short Time. I am, with very great Respect,

"My Lord,

"Your Lordship's most humble

"and most obedient Servant,

"My Lord Chancellor. "Jo. Methwen."
