during the Night where their Meetings have been so frequent
<

</

as almost to become matter of public notoriety: The Jurors therefore
<

</

humbly presume to come before this Court with a request that the
<
lb

</
lb

Court will be pleased in such mode and manner as they shall
<
lb

</
lb

think proper to make the needful Application to the Ranger of the
<
lb

</

said Park his Deputy, or other the proper Officer, that if i shall be
<
lb

</
lb

found convenient and practicable every Avenue whatever leading to
<
lb

</
lb

the said Park may be shut up at some certain and seasonable time
<
lb

</
lb

in the Evening and so continue until Morning, and that no person
<
lb

</
lb

be suffered to enter the said Park during the time of its being so shut
<
lb

</
lb

without making it appear that they have some lawful occasion for so
<
lb

</

doing: The Jurors have been given to understand that all the Gates
<
lb

</
lb

except the one known by the name of Penny's Gate are already shut up
<
lb

</
lb

nightly and they of themselves are not aware of any Inconveniences that
<
lb

</
lb

can arise from shutting this also but this they humbly submit to
<
lb

</
lb

consideration; The Jurors confidently rely that the motives which have
<
lb

</
lb

led them to make this Application will secure it a favorable reception and
<
lb

</
lb

they rest in hopes the same may be carried into immediate effect.
