letters patents not to plant a mixed plantation of Irish and
English, but only of English and inland Scots. As there are
a large number of Irish who still reside upon the lands given
to planters. His Majesty commands that before the 1st of
May next ensuing they shall remove with all their belong¬
ings. If they still continue, to be fined 10s. sterling; and
if they continue after that, to be fined as the Lord Deputy
and Council shall think lit.
