Sergeant Thorpe judge of assize for the northern circuit, his charge, : as it was delivered to the grand-jury at York assizes the twentieth of March, 1648. and taken in shortwriting. Clearly epitomizing the statutes belonging to this nation, which concerns (and, as a golden rule, ought to regulate) the severall estates and conditions of men. And (being duely observed) do really promote the peace and plenty of this Commonwealth. - Thorpe, Francis (by Tho: Broad, 1649)
