The Queen, in opening the session of 1704-5, had exhorted her Parliament to peace and union; but the High-Churchmen were too hot to listen to advice even from her.

The Occasional Conformity Bill was again introduced and carried in the Commons.

The Lords rejected it.

The Commons persisted, and to secure the passing of the measure, tacked it to a Bill of Supply.

The Lords refused to pass the Money Bill till the tack was withdrawn.
