On the levee day the Lord Mayor told the Secretary of at length difeovered that they h id no fafery but in flight—with the'iofs of his ammunition, horfes, fpecie, and baggage, and harraffid and af- failed on all fidee, he fecured the re treat of his gallant followers, by the facrifice of his own invaluable life.

I’he Secretary faid it was bed to give it to him, and he would favc the Lord Mayor all further trouble. To which his Lorddiip replied, that he would not confent to prefent it to any one except the king in perfirm ; and that it was the willi of both hin.felf and the Sheriff., to do it in any way which would fave his tna- jedy mod trouble.
