For Sir Thomas Mallet, knight, one of
the justices of the King’s Bench.
When this order was delivered to judge Mallet, he forthwith sent his
warrant to the marshal of the King’s Bench, for G. Fox’s release: which
warrant was thus:
‘By virtue of a warrant which this morning I have received from
the right honourable sir Edward Nicholas, knight, one of his
Majesty’s principal secretaries, for the releasing and setting
at liberty of George Fox, late a prisoner in Lancaster jail,
and from thence brought hither, by habeas corpus, and yesterday
committed unto your custody; I do hereby require you accordingly
to release, and set the said prisoner, George Fox, at liberty:
for which this shall be your warrant and discharge. Given under
my hand the 25th day of October, in the year of our Lord God,
1660.
