Inscribed to Sir William Withers, Lord Mayor of London; By Dr. William King, late Judge of the High Court of Admiralty, Keeper of the Records, and Vicar-General, to the Lord Primate, of Ireland, &c. To which is added A Remonstrance with the Court of Common-Council, On their presenting the freedom of the City to Dr. Price, for his Observations on Civil Liberty; Setting forth the inconsistency of their concern for the Liberties of the Americans, while they trample on the Rights and Privileges of their Fellow-Citizens
