BY THE LORD DEPUTY AND COUNCIL.

TYRCONNELL.

WHEREAS it hath been a custom in the Cities and other great Towns of this Kingdom upon cer­tain Festival days, and other solemn occasions of joy, to make Bonefires and other Fires in the streets, and the great concourse of idle people ga­thering about those Fires, hath of late occasion'd several Riots, Quarrels, and other great disorders, To prevent the like mischiefs for the future, it is thought convenient, and accordingly ordered, that no such Fires be hereafter made in the streets, or elsewhere, upon any solemnity or other occasions whatsoever, without special directions from Vs the Lord Deputy, or other the Chief Governor for the time being of this King­dom: And the respective Mayors and other the Chief Magistrates of the said Cities and Towns are hereby strictly charged and required to see this Our Order duly executed and obeyed,

Given at the Council-Chamber in Dublin the 31th day of October 1687.
