We should with great Readiness and Submission have obey’d your Honour’s Commands, in Forbearing to publish the two Letters from Sir Thomas Robinson, of July the 5th. and October the 26th, were it only a Concern of our own, or a Matter in our Disposition. But as those Letters are contain’d in the Votes and Proceedings of the Assembly, and inserted therein by their Order, we could not omit them without obtaining the Directions of the House. To that End we laid the Commands received from your Honour before the Assembly. But the House has expressly order’d us to proceed directly in publishing the Votes containing those Letters; and we being, as their Printer, the immediate Servants of the House, are oblig’d in this Matter to obey their Orders. We therefore hope your Honour will excuse us, and believe us to be, with all possible Respect Your Honours most obedient and most humble Servants
