At laft the Conftable came, who told me, That as he was coming to the Houfe the Back- way, he met Piers in the Fields, going off ; that he told him he was going to ft arch his 'Houfe for fto- len Goods \ but that he had no Warrant again/I him. Whereupon Piers faid, That he would corns to him, but that he much doubted, whether he would be as good as his Word. I made the Con- ftable, however, ftay a... good while before we did anyThing ; but rinding it in vain to exped Piers, j I went 104 LIBERTY and PROPERTY. I went up Stairs, and looking through fome Holes in the Doors of the Chambers, I faw fe- veral of my Goods in each Room. I faw in particular the (Irong Cheft in which my Servant had lodged my Writings and Papers. The Conftable commanded Piers' s Wife in the King's Name to open the Doors ; but this me refolute- ly refufed to do. We were exprefsly forbid by our Warrant to break them open, nay, what was worfe, I could not get even this Warrant, till I had given my word and Honour that no Doors Jhould be broke open.
