WHEREAS Complaint hath been made unto Us, two

the Church-Wardens and Overseers of the Poor of the Said

any legal Settlement there, and is likely to become charge-

quire you the Church Wardens and Oversers of the Poor of
the said Parish of St. Giles

from and out of your said Parish, unto the said Parish of
St. Andrew Holborn
And her deliver unto the Church-Wardens and Overseers
of the Poor there, or to some or one of them, together with this
our Order, who is and are hereby required to receive and pro-
vide for her according to Law, Given under our Hands

Seven Hundred and Fifty Nine .
