mon Women, who likewise forwarded his Fall, and having contracted a habit of Drinking, made him incapable of doing any Thing to purpose. Coates, and some others of that hellish Gang, made him drunk, and when not sensible of what he did, they carried him to Mr. Dixey's House in Black-Pryars , which they with difficulty broke into, and delivered the Goods to Nash, who took them to the three Women mentioned in the Indictment; who disposed of them as they thought fit, for which they were transported. He was sick some Days, and when visited, profest Penitence. As soon as he recover'd, he constantly attended in Chappel, was attentive to Prayers and Instructions, made regular Responses, and behav'd decently and penitently. He cryed much, but was wretchedly ignorant, having been a despiser of all Religion from his Infancy. He believed, (as he said) in Christ, our only Saviour, repented of all his Sins, and was in Peace with all Men. He confest himself a Thief, but guilty of no Robbery or Burglary saving this.

Two or three Years ago, as he was carrying up a Hod of Mortar to the Bricklayers, and some Slaters, he fell from the Top of St. Thomas's-Hospital , into the Street, since which he has been almost unable to do any Work.

After the Report was made, he seemed more affected, and wept. He said he was penitent, and died in Peace with all Mankind.

He was much addicted to drinking, and to vicious Conversation; and filtched and stole what he could lay his Hands on.
