WHEREAS We are informed that several of the Inhabitants of the Province of Vlster, being forced away by the Enemy, did with their Stock and Cattel go into Our Counties of Dublin, Meath, Kildare, and West-Meath, where they have committed great Spoyls upon the Inhabitants of those Counties, by consuming a great part of their Corn and Hay, and are still remaining in the said Counties with their Kereights, doing great injuries to the Inhabitants thereof, which if not prevented, will be of evil consequence to Our Affairs; since We propose that a great part of Our Army may be supplyed out of the said Counties. For remedy whereof, We have thought fit to Charge and Command; And We do hereby strictly Charge and Command all the said Inhabitants of Vlster, commonly called Kereight-men, that they do forthwith remove all their Kereights, Cows and Horses out of the said Counties, and carry them to the Mountains of Wicklow, Slieveblymen, Slieveneman, Slievemara, the Hills of Gawlin and Ideogh. And in case the said Inhabitants will fail herein, We do Charge, and strictly Command Our Lieutenants, and Deputy Lieutenants of Our said Counties of Dublin, Meath, Kildare, and West-Meath, to cause the said Kereights and Cattel to be removed out of the said Counties into the places aforesaid, as they shall answer the contrary at their peril.
God Save The KING.
