King's Answer touching his Judgment ver. Yelverton.

The Lord Archbishop of Canterbury reported, That Yesterday, according to the Direction of the House the Second of this May, he presented the Petition of their Lordships unto the King's Majesty; humbly desiring, that His Majesty would be pleased that this House may continue Judges of Sir Henry Yelverton, for the Matter concerning His Majesty's Honour, at which Time His Majesty said, "that, in Example of that most famous Queen Elizabeth (when this whole House was a Suitor unto Her), He must return an Answer answerless;" But now, this Morning, His Majesty's Answer is:

"The Lords knowing that they enjoy their Honours from Him, and under Him, He doubts not, but that they will be most tender of His Honour; and therefore He doth return back unto their Lordships the whole and final Ordering of that Business of Sir Henry Yelverton."

Agreed, That Thomas Emerson, whom Sir Henrie Yelverton vouched 30 Aprilis, to bring a Message unto him from Mompesson, be sent for, and examined thereon; and then, the Business being prepared, to appoint a speedy Day to proceed against Sir Henry Yelverton.

The House is adjourned ad libitum; during which Time,

Precedents concerning the Commons Judicature.

The Lords, having considered of the Precedents alledged by the Commons at the last Conference 5 Maii, they found that they tended to prove,

1. That the House of Commons is a Court of Record.

2. That they have ministred an Oath in Matters concerning themselves.

3. That they have inflicted Punishments on Delinquents, where the Cause hath concerned a Member of their House, or the Privileges thereof.

And their Lordships having Determined, that the Question at this Time is not, Whether that House be a Court of Record, nor whether the Oath by them alledged to be ministred in a Matter concerning that House was ministred by that House, or by a Master of the Chancery (then being one of that House), nor whether they have Right of Judicature in Matters concerning themselves; but the Question is, Whether that House may proceed to sentence any Man who is not a Member of that House, and for a Matter which concerns not that House; for which the Commons alledged no Proofs, nor produced any Precedent.

Their Lordships agreed to pray a Re-conference about the same; and, at the Conference, to handle this only; videlicet, That the House of Commons have no Power of Judicature nor Coercion against any, but in Matters concerning that House. And the House was moved, That, for a friendly Ending of this Business, a Sub-committee (of a small Number) of both Houses might be propounded to accommodate the same.

The House being resumed;

Message to the Commons.

Message was sent to the Commons, by Mr. Serjeant Crewe, Sir William Bird,

Floud's Business.

To desire a free Conference between both Houses about the same Business, they met on Saturday last, concerning Floud, To-morrow, in the Painted Chamber, at Three in the Afternoon.

Answer.

Answer returned,

They will attend the Re-conference, at the Time and Place appointed.

It, having been much debated (whilst the House was adjourned ad libitum), Whether the Lords, at this Reconference, shall propound a Sub-committee to be had for the accommodating of this Business, concerning Floud, if the Commons do not desire it; and it being now put to the Question, it was agreed, That, if the Commons do not desire it, the Lords may, if Need be.
