HIS
MAJESTIES
ANSVVER
TO
THE
Humble
Petition
of
the
Gentlemen
,
Free-holders
,
and
Ministers
of
the
Countie
Palatine
of
CHESTER
,
delivered
to
His
MAIESTIE
at
YORK
the
seventh
of
May
,
1642.
At
the
Court
at
YORK
9
May
1642.
His
Maiestie
hath
given
me
expresse
command
to
give
you
this
His
Answer
to
your
Petition
.
THat
He
sees
plainly
that
this
Petition
of
yours
hath
been
framed
without
having
heard
the
Answer
His
Majestie
gave
to
His
Parliament
,
upon
their
Petition
to
Him
for
desisting
from
His
Iourney
into
Ireland
;
for
He
cannot
thinke
that
that
Countrey
(
from
whence
He
hath
received
formerly
so
good
expressions
of
their
loyall
Intentions
,
by
two
former
Petitions
presented
long
since
to
Him
and
the
Parliament
)
would
have
been
so
much
mistaken
,
as
to
have
made
this
Petition
,
after
they
had
seen
and
well
considered
His
Majesties
said
Answer
.
And
His
Majestie
observes
very
well
,
that
this
Petition
is
not
like
others
,
which
by
an
untimely
Zeal
,
have
desired
Him
to
return
to
His
Parliament
;
You
onely
desiring
Him
there
to
reside
,
where
with
more
conveniency
and
security
He
may
consult
with
His
great
Councell
,
then
by
going
into
Ireland
:
His
Majestie
being
confident
,
That
your
well
weighing
of
His
Answers
concerning
that
subject
,
hath
been
the
cause
that
you
have
not
imitated
some
few
other
Countreys
in
that
particular
;
And
that
you
have
well
considered
the
Rebellious
Affront
offered
to
Him
at
Hull
,
by
a
hostile
opposition
of
His
entrance
;
and
therefore
beleeves
that
the
same
Reason
which
made
you
,
at
this
time
expresse
your
tender
care
of
His
Person
,
and
the
former
good
expressions
you
made
of
your
Loyalty
and
right-set
Affections
to
the
good
of
the
whole
Kingdom
,
may
sooner
induce
you
to
Petition
the
Parliament
to
apply
themselves
to
a
right
understanding
of
His
Majesties
wayes
and
intentions
,
and
to
do
Him
Iustice
for
that
Affront
,
then
make
you
to
preferre
any
such
ill-grounded
Petition
.
And
that
you
may
be
the
better
informed
of
His
Majesties
proceedings
in
those
particulars
;
He
recommends
to
your
view
and
consideration
,
His
Answers
to
the
Declaration
presented
to
Him
at
New-market
,
to
the
Petition
presented
to
Him
at
York
the
26
of
March
last
,
concerning
His
journey
into
Ireland
,
His
two
Messages
and
Declaration
concerning
Hull
;
all
which
,
when
it
shall
be
fully
represented
to
the
rest
of
your
County
,
He
doubts
not
but
that
you
will
rest
very
well
satisfied
of
His
constant
Resolution
for
the
maintaining
of
,
and
governing
you
by
the
Law
of
the
Land
,
His
unmoveable
Resolutions
for
the
maintenance
and
defence
of
the
true
Protestant
Profession
,
and
the
suppression
and
chastising
of
the
barbarous
Irish
Rebellion
,
As
for
your
apprehensions
of
danger
of
being
left
naked
,
and
not
put
into
a
Posture
of
Defence
,
His
Majestie
assures
you
,
That
He
will
take
care
that
it
shall
be
done
in
the
true
old
legall
way
which
hath
been
used
in
this
Kingdom
,
without
bringing
in
strangers
to
govern
you
,
or
admitting
new
and
exorbitant
Powers
,
derogating
both
from
His
Majesties
undoubted
Legall
Authority
,
and
the
Liberty
of
the
Subject
,
which
,
as
He
hath
constantly
denied
,
so
He
expects
,
and
no
wayes
doubts
,
but
that
you
will
give
Obedience
to
that
,
and
that
onely
,
which
shall
proceed
from
His
Majesty
in
a
Legall
way
.
