Grant of £1,500 a year

On re-reading the Journal, the grant of £1500 to the Lord Deputy is not part of the Act, so I've removed it.

That Lands of Inheritance, of the clear yearly Value of Fifteen hundred Pounds of the forfeited Lands in Ireland, as they were in the Year One thousand Six hundred and Forty, be settled on the Lord Deputy of Ireland, and his Heirs, as a Reward of his many faithful and great Services for this Commonwealth, and as a Testimony, of the great Respects of the Parliament unto him; and that a Bill be brought in to that Purpose. ( From: 'House of Commons Journal Volume 7: 8 June 1657', Journal of the House of Commons: volume 7: 1651-1660 (1802), pp. 549-51. URL: [1])

It ties up with the mention of the same amount in the Henry Cromwell article.--Red King 13:34, 10 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
