This was a practice begun in the late times : When the Parliament made a recess, they appointed some of every state to sit, and to act as a Council of State in their name till the next session ; for which they were to prepare matters, and to which they gave an account of their proceedings. " " A great many offenders were summoned, at the King's suit, before the Committee of... Estates, and required to give bail, that they should appear at the opening of the Parliament, and answer to what should be then objected to them. " vol. I. P. 155, 156. NOTE LL. Page 144.
