Royal letters patent dated same for dissolving the Board of Works, annulling the new Regulations for the Works and reviving the orders established by the late Queen Anne as follows: viz.: At his accession the King thought fit to put the affairs of the Works under a new Regulation and thereupon a body of Instructions was formed by his order and signed by his Majesty 29 April 1715, ut supra, Calendar of Treasury Books, Vol. XXIX, pp. 493–6, and thereby (and by other Instructions since signed) the Board of Works was constituted of a Surveyor, a Comptroller and a Paymaster, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Surveyor General of Crown Lands, the Surveyor General of Woods and the Surveyor General of the King's Roads and Private Ways. For good reasons and considerations the King has dissolved and hereby does dissolve the Board of Works so constituted: and he likewise supersedes, revokes and determines the body of Instructions aforementioned and all further and other Instructions relating to the Works ordered at any time since. But to the end that the service of the Works may be carried on it is his pleasure that the orders and Rules bearing date 1705 Oct. 12, ut supra, Calendar of Treasury Books, Vol. XX, pp. 431–2, established by the late Queen Anne shall be the orders and rules for the present government of the Works and be revived and put in practice in all things as fully and effectively as if the same were repeated and inserted verbatim herein; until such time as we shall signify our pleasure to the contrary.

O'Hara, Brigadier Stanwix, Major General Whetham, and Lieut. Gen. Sankey: all by reason that Col. Richard Kane, Lieut. Governor of Minorca, hath represented to the King that it was signified from the then Secretary at War 1716 November 26 that the King had made a new Establishment and Regulation of the Forces by which every Regiment in the service was to muster and for the future to consist in each Troop or Company of five men less than their [then] present numbers upon the Establishment and that a sum of money in lieu of the pay of the said five men was to be placed upon the Establishment of every Regiment to be disposed of in the following manner: viz. the full pay of one man per Troop and Company to [go to the credit of] the Widows' Fund as usual. the subsistence of one man per Troop and Company to [go to the credit of] the Colonels of the respective Regiments in lieu of all customary allowances and pretensions. the subsistence of two men per Troop and Company to [go to the credit of] the respective Captains for the charge of recruiting and [for] other Regimental contingent expenses and customary allowances. the subsistence of one man per Troop and Company to [go to the credit of] the respective Regiments in lieu of their customary allowances. the remainder of the full pay of the four men last mentioned (after the usual deductions made) to be issued as offreckonings upon such assignments as have been or shall be made thereof by the respective Colonels towards enabling them to supply the loss of cloathing by desertion &c. In obedience to the said signification the said Lieut. Governor of Minorca conformed the muster rolls of the four Regiments in garrison there to the said new Regulation from 25 Dec. 1716, from which time forward there have been no fictitious names placed on the muster rolls of the said Regiments. He has therefore prayed a royal warrant to authorise him to include the full pay of the said five men in the Debentures to be made out for the pay of the said Regiments from the said 25 Dec. 1716: all which is hereby granted and authorised as above. Nevertheless as often as there shall appear upon the muster rolls of any of the said Companies any respits of private men the same shall be deducted: and you shall also deduct from each Captain who shall have any such respit on his Company the subsistence of the two men allowed for recruiting for the times that any such respit shall appear; “it being our intention that the benefit of the said allowance of subsistence money for recruiting shall be only on condition and during the time that the respective Companies shall be kept complete.” King's Warrant Book XXIX, pp. 287–8. |

A like warrant dated same for the pay as above of the five men per Troop or Company discontinued upon the muster rolls of the Forces in Great Britain from 25 June 1717 to Dec. 24 following: for the like purpose as above and with the like proviso as above: all by reason that the royal warrant of 15 July 1717 allowed the pay of the said five men for purposes as above from 25 Aug. 1716 to 24 June 1717; and the King is graciously pleased to continue the allowance of the said full pay for the five men so discontinued per Troop and Company “throughout all our Regiments of Horse, Foot and Dragoons in Great Britain to and for the uses before expressed” from 25 June 1717 to Dec. 24 following.

Treasury warrant to the Surveyor of his Majesty's [private] Roads to give liberty to the inhabitants of Fulham for one week and no longer to pass through the King's private road. Prefixing: report by the Board of Works dated Aug. 20 inst. on the petition of said inhabitants, ut supra, p. 530. Had they made application sooner for this indulgence the inconveniency of letting so great a number of heavy carriages pass through would not have been so great as just at this time during his Majesty's residence at Hampton Court; because the last years when the Court was there complaints were frequently made that the coaches of several of the Ministers of State and other persons of quality and distinction were stopped and crowded into the ditches by carts, drays, stage and Hackney coaches amp;c. that could not be kept out by reason the Surveyor of the Roads was not master of the gates and gatekeepers. But since it seems to be a case of necessity and the favour they ask not like to exceed one week (although the road is already since the late great expense very much worn), we are of opinion so short a space of time cannot do the road much more damage. Ibid., p. 126. Treasury letters patent constituting and appointing as Commissioners for Hawkers and Pedlars George Townsend, Montague Bacon and John Ayliffe in place of George Townsend, Montague Bacon and Thomas Jervaise, thereto constituted by a Treasury instrument dated 7 Aug. 1717, which is hereby determined.

The said Jacob de la Motte Blagny is to pay the above list by quarterly payments on the production of a certificate signed by three at least of the principal [Huguenot] Refugees residing in London of the alterations made in the aforegoing Establishment by death. He is to deliver the acquittances or other vouchers which he receives to the person from whose hands he shall receive the money for payment thereof to the end they may be delivered to the Auditors of Imprests. King's Warrant Book XXIX, pp. 274–9. |
Aug. 25. |
Royal sign manual to Walter Chetwynd [Paymaster of the King's private pensions and bounties]. The several persons undernamed were inserted on our former Establishment for the pensions set against their names respectively. But we have thought fit to respit and suspend the payment of the said pensions until a strict examination be passed on the persons receiving the same, so as we may thereby be informed that these instances of our bounty are bestowed on such objects who by reason of their services, sufferings or misfortunes by and under the Crown are worthy and deserving our favour in that behalf. Therefore upon the appearance of any of the said persons for their pensions you are to examine and interrogate them touching their pretensions to the said pensions and the proofs, certificates and testimonials they have to support the same. And from time to time as such examinations shall by you be taken, you are to exhibit the same in writing to the Treasury Lords to be laid before us for our further pleasure therein. |
