In fine, being demanded out of the former order whether he would quitte that clause of his Patent w^{ch} (quite otherwise then Sir William Throckmorton's, Captain Christopher Dawnes' and other men's patentes) exempteth himselffe and his people from all services of the Colonie excepte onely in case of warre against a forren or domesticall enemie.
