Tin seized by the Navy, intended to be exported from Cornwall to France, contrary to the Ordinance of both Houses.
The Lord Wharton reported, "That the Committee of Lords and Commons at Haberdashers Hall desired that their Lordships may be made acquainted with some Matters of Fact which were before them there, as being fit for their Lordships Consideration; and the Committee of the House of Commons have made a Report thereof to that House: The Effect of the Business was this, That, about December last, an Ordinance of Parliament was made, against the transporting of Tin out of the County of Cornwaile, to any other Ports saving to London or Amsterdam; yet the Tin Farmers have got Leave of the King (contrary to their Bonds) to trade in Tin there, and have sent much Quantity of Tin into France; and Return hath been made in Arms and Ammunition, to supply the Rebels in the County of Cornwaile against the Parliament; and that now there is in The Thames a great Quantity of Tin, to the Value of Twenty-five Thousand Pounds, taken by the Navy, which Tin is conceived to be forfeited (the Farmers having broken the Ordinance of Parliament); and the said Tin is fit to be employed for the Public."
