being of opinion , that they are serviceable to themselves and allies , and hurtful to none except their enemies . that the french letter of mart ships have done us more damage in our trade than their men of war ; and such of our merchant ships and gallies that have been so lucky to obtain commissions , have done very good service , by taking in the mediterranean only many rich prizes from the french , to the value of at least one hundred thousand pounds within these last six months . that upon the incouragement of having letters of mart , which were not denied till lately , the merchants have built many very fine frigats and gallies , the better to annoy the enemy , and secure their own trade , which was before in a great measure lost in several places , and now thereby partly regain'd ; but should not the commissions already granted , which are expired or expiring ( for they last but for one voyage , which is also esteemed hard ) be removed , and new ones granted to the frigats and gallies lately built , it will be a great hinderance to their hopeful way of recovering our trade , and also a discouragement to the merchants and marriners . that in regard merchant ships of all other nations in war have commissions , our commanders and sea-men are unwilling to go to sea without being upon equal terms with them : for without commissions they dare not seize a french ship , though she falls in their way , for fear of being afterwards retaken by the french , and hanged for pirates . besides , commissions encourage the men the better to defend their ships ; for who will fight , when if they should overcome they dare not seize ? that such ships as have commissions are obliged to give 1500 or 2000 l. security to perform their instructions , and particularly to carry one half of their compliment land-men , which raises a great number of sea-men for his majesties service ; and their prizes pay considerable customs and fifths to the crown , besides the gain it brings to the concerned and nation in general ; for each prize is a double gain to us , in regard the enemy looses as much as we get . the objection that hath been made against granting commissions is , that some of these commission ships have committed irregularities . to which is answered , that there hath been several hundred commissions granted since the war , and it s believed there never was fewer irregularities committed by such a great number of ships as by those , if any at all . but with submission , suppose one in a hundred of them have broken their instructions , ( though we know of none ) it would be severe for all the rest to suffer for their faults , when they may be so easily punished for it . by the king, a proclamation for suspending the execution of a commission of reprizal granted unto sir edmond turner and george carew, on behalf of themselves and others england and wales. sovereign (1660-1685 : charles ii) 1666 approx. 4 kb of xml-encoded text transcribed from 1 1-bit group-iv tiff page image. text creation partnership, ann arbor, mi ;
