Who being on Oath say and first the said Philip Weldon< no role > says that
on Monday Evening last about 9 o'Clock as this Informant was

a Shabby Looking Man standing near the Pallisadoes of Mr.

seeing a second Man standing a little below said House and
suspecting they intended to rob it, he went up towards
the House, in order to alarm the Servants (at which time
one of the Parlour Windows was up) when a Person now
present who calls himself George Adams< no role > jumped out at
said Window upon the Area Steps, and whom (after some
difficulty) this Informed secured. That when said Adams
was secured he dropped two Glasses of an Ink stand, and at
the same time threw something down into the Area which,
by the sound appeared to be Plate, And the said Nathaniel
