Sheweth

That yor: peticoner was Bound to prosecute Elize: Cocheroft< no role >
on May Sessions last But being a poor Ignorant person
not knowing the nature of such Affairs, and being Sick

not possibly attend the Court

Wee therefore most humbly be serched
this Honorable Court to take her necessitous Case into
Consideracon and Discharge her Recognizance & all
proceedings thereon upon payment of what small
matter of moneys Shee hath, being not in a Capacity
to Satisfy the whole Court Charges

And yor Peticoner Shall ever Pray etc.
