Now, he considered both these assertions to be entirely erroneous First, with regard to the privilege of printing and publishing the papers connected with the proceedings of that House; before the revolution of 1688, the votes of the House were printed and published by the authority of the Speaker, with the evident intention of appealing to the people as to the conduct of the House of Commons; and the very first act after that, was the printing and publishing the Declaration of Rights, in which the House of Commons of that day appealed to the people for their support in That Extraordinary Crisis.
