During that day Reresb}^ as Governor, the High Sheriff, and the Lord Mayor, proclaimed James H. — the proceedings being " transacted with all imaginable token of peace ...and joy, not only in York, but afterwards throughout the whole country, and, indeed, the whole kingdom. " But there were still troublous times ahead — and at no great distance.
