THE first Return Westminster ever made of Representatives to Parliament, was after the Dissolution of Abbeys. For it is plain, that Ano. 33 of Henry the Eighth, there was no Return or Summons of Members from it, or Peterborough, or several Abbey Towns. So we may date their sending Representatives to be undoubtedly in Henry the Eighth's last Parliament, begun An. Reg. 33. aforesaid, or rather in the next convened Parliament, which was in Edward the Sixth's Reign. So there we begin our Account.
