Ancient Criminal Trials.

MR PITCAIRN begs to notify to Members of THE BANNATYNE CLUB, who have not yet procured the above Work, or whose sets are incomplete, that a few of the additional copies still remain unappropriated. They were printed on the CLUB PAPER purchased from the Club, under the sanction of the Council, for the purpose of supplying new Members, and of completing the sets of such as might decease previous to its completion.

As only a few complete sets, and some separate Parts for perfecting broken copies, now remain, early attention is recommended to this circular, as Members will be supplied strictly in the order of application.

To have power and instructions [how] to act, Colin was sent express by the Council to London. He got through with difficulty, Yorkshire being then in arms for the Prince of Orange. He came to London the day after the King returned from Feversham, and, with his friend, Lord Dundee, went early next morning to the King. He was received affectionately, but observed that there were none with him but some of the gentlemen of his bed-chamber. L came in, one of the generals of his army disbanded about a fortnight before. He informed the King, that most of his generals and colonels of his guards had assembled that morning upon observing the universal joy of the city upon his return; that the result of their meeting was to appoint him to tell his Majesty that still much was in their power to serve and defend him, that most part of the army disbanded was either in London or near it; and that, if he would order them to beat their drums, they were confident twenty thousand men could be got together before the end of next day.
