last year for the establishment of religious liberty
as applicable to the Cape :
" Whereas an act was passed in the 10th year of
his Majesty's reign, entitled, ' An act for the relief
of his Majesty's Roman Cat)7,olic subjects,' and
that it is-expedient such enactment and provisions
of said act- as are applicable to this colony be ex-
tended thereto, so modified as to meet the circum-
stances of the rase; it 19 therefore enacted, that
after the commencement of this ordinance, it shall
be lawful for any of his Majesty's Roman Catholic
subjects to hold, exercise, and enjoy, all civil and
military offices, and places of trust or profit under
his Majesty, his heirs, and successors, and to exer-
cise any other franchise or civil right, upon taking
and subscribing the following oath instead of the
oaths of allegiance, supremacy, and abjuration,
and instead of such other oaths as may be now
by law required to be taken for the purpose afore-
said."
