Additionall Directions of the Lords and Commons Assembled in Parliament, For the Billeting of the Army, when they are upon a March, or settled in their Quarters.  
1 THat when soever any Forces shall be by virtue of an Order from the general, or from such as he shall appoint, upon a march or removing Quarters, they shall at the towns or Parishes where they shall be ordered to quarter, be billeted in the usual way by the quartermaster or superior Officers, according to the directions of the Constables or chief civil Officers of the said towns or Parishes; And the respective Inhabitants where any of the said soldiers shall be so billeted shall receive them, and for one night, or two nights at the most, shall find them their ordinary family diet, wherewith the soldier shall be contented, and pay for the same at the rate of six pence per diem for a Foot soldier, and twelve pence per diem for a Trooper, and hay only for his Horse.  
2 That for the first fortnight after the Forces shall be drawn into Garrisons, Towns and Cities, (according to the Directions of Parliament) and until they shall be furnished with pay to enable them to maintain themselves, they shall in the same manner be quartered, received and provided for, and at the same rates aforesaid, by such Inhabitants upon whom they shall be billeted by the Magistrate of the place, or by their own Officers, in case the civil Magistrate shall refuse to do it; the Officers engaging to the Inhabitants to see the Quarters discharged at the said Rates.  
3 That after the said fortnight is expired, or after the Forces shall be furnished with pay as aforesaid, in any Garrisons, towns, or Cities, where any Forces shall come by Order, as aforesaid, to be at a settled Quarter, so many of them as cannot be conveniently disposed of to inns; alehouses, taverns, or Victualling-houses, shall be billeted at other houses by the chief Magistrate of the place, or (if he shall refuse to do it) by the chief Officer present with the said Forces; and in case of any abuse or inequality therein, the said Magistrate, or next Justice of Peace, to have power to order and alter the proportions of billetting to the several Inhabitants, as he shall find most fit and equal: And the persons where they shall be so billeted, shall receive them accordingly; but shall not after the two first nights from the soldiers coming thither (for which the soldier is to pay at the Rates aforesaid) be liable to find the soldier any diet or Horse-meat (except by agreement betwixt him and the soldier, and at such Rates as they shall agree upon) but shall only entertain the soldier with lodging, stable room, and the use of their ordinary fire and candlelight. And in case any such Inhabitants be aggrieved therewith, and desire to have no soldiers at all in his house (he or the Magistrate providing such Billet for the soldier elsewhere within the town) or at any Village adjacent (within such distance as the chief Officer commanding in the Quarter shall allow of) such Inhabitant shall have his house wholly free.
