To which Charge the said Samuell Atkins, by his Petition, confessed, "That he, being informed that the said Thomas Lodington was arrested upon several Actions, and that he was a Prisoner, did lay an Execution upon him for a Debt of Two Hundred and Three Pounds."

Hereupon it is ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That the said Thomas Lodington, being arrested contrary to the Privilege of Parliament, and detained in Prison by Neale, Keeper of the Prison at St. Katherine's, shall be forthwith released from his present Restraint; and that the further Consideration of the Criminal Part of this Business is referred to the Examination of the Committee of Privileges; before whom the said Neale, that first arrested the said Thomas Lodington, shall upon Summons appear before the said Lords Committees, to answer the said Offence; and afterwards their Lordships are to make Report to this House.
