To the Worshipfull Bench of
Justices now sitting at Hicks's
Hall the Petition of Robt: Daniel< no role >
most humbly

Sheweth

That your Worships Petitioner was
commited by this Worshipfull Bench to Clerkenwell
Bridewell to hard Labour for cheating & defrauding the
Honble: Henry Finch< no role > Esqr . of five Guineas, as alledged
on Friday last, but by Reason of a Sore Leg which,
he has and the other being rubbed and tore by the
heavy Irons which they have put on him for want of
Money he is quite uncapable of preforming the Labour
your Worships order'd him. The truth of this can be
attested by creditable Evidence Therefore most humbly
hopes your Worships will order him some relief as
Your Worshipfull Bench in your great Wisdoms shall
think meet and he as in Duty bound shall ever pray

Robert Daniell< no role >
