together with his servants. by the
guard at this famous playhouse in the
course of what seems to have been a
rather serious fracas. the king had
given orders at the desire Of the peers
that no soldiers should be on duty
there for the future and that the play
ers should be suspended from acting
till they had begged pardon for the AZ
front"
The house had also. it appears, vim

the person Of one Of its members. by
ordering a sergeant and a soldier to
be sent to the gatehouse at Whitehall,
