3. Geography of Act	Prince-Bishopric of Würzburg
4. Text of Act	Johann Philipp Franz, Bishop of Würzburg and Duke of Franconia, had already issued instructions … to deal with the increasing number of beggar-Jews, who were nothing but robbers and thieves. These individuals were to be driven out and chased away at the borders of the high diocese, and if they attempted to sneak deeper into the land, they were to be caught and severely punished with harsh blows. They were then to be escorted from one district to another, with the explicit warning that any attempt to re-enter the land would result in even harsher penalties for their bodies and lives, in accordance with the issued district mandate. … Nevertheless, it has been reported that such beggar-Jews have been admitted into the diocese by showing one or another passport, but experience has shown that they are outright swindlers and thieves, and as such are not to be tolerated under any circumstances,… [Therefore] all officials,… are hereby seriously and under unavoidable punishment ordered that no begging Jew, residing within the diocese or under the jurisdiction of the noble estates, who is not provided with a sufficient and authentic passport and high princely customs stamp, is allowed to pass through, [and] as soon as he is stopped [apprehended], his work and why he is not provided with the proper customs stamps, his actions and omissions are questioned, his bundles, bags or other goods he is carrying are inspected, and a report must be made to the authorities. Jews residing under the protection of the diocese are strictly ordered not to give shelter, assistance, or any form of support to foreign beggar-Jews,… [if they do] they should immediately be expelled from the protection of the diocese, or even punished in life and limb, and … [anyone], if they had knowledge of such assistance, and did not report it appropriately to the officials of each locality…, be subject to the same punishment.
