done, they took out the Fat and sold it to one * Samuel Chattle< no role > , a Tallow-Chandler in the Borough of Southwark , for about forty Shillings; but there being an Account between Patrick Bourke< no role > and him, therefore he paid him but one Pound ten Shillings and ten Pence Half-penny, which Money was equally divided between Patrick Bourke< no role > , George Ellis< no role > , and Felomy Connelly< no role > .

AFTER this, on Saturday the 3d , and Sunday the 4th of November last the same Persons went into a Field near Dulwich in Kent , and there they killed about Twenty-two Sheep, and took the Fat out of them, and amongst the Fat which they sold to the aforesaid Tallow-Chandler, there was several Flesh Kidneys, which he took Notice of, and made a Deduction in the Price.

SOMETIME after, which was in the Month of September last, George Ellis< no role > and Patrick Bourke< no role > went in the Night time, into a Field near Kensington Gravel Pits , and kill'd twenty Weather Sheep, and they took the Kidney's and Cawl Fat out of them, and they sold the same to the said Tallow-Chandler, but did not strip the Fat from of the said Sheep.

AFTER this, sometime in October last, they all Three went into a Field, in, or near the Parish of Frayant, Barnet , in the County of Middlesex , and there they killed twenty-two Ewes, after they had thus done, they took out their Fat, and sold it to the aforesaid Tallow-Chandler.

ABOUT four Months ago, George Ellis< no role > , Patrick Bourke< no role > , Patrick Baite< no role > , with Fellomy Connelly,< no role > went into a Field near Dulwich , in the Night, and there they killed about eleven Sheep, took out their Fat, and brought it to Town, and sold it to their former Friend.

ABOUT the Month of January last, in the Night time, Patrick Bourke< no role > , George Ellis< no role > , Fellomy Connelly< no role > , and Patrick Baite< no role > , went into a Field near Paddington : but what was very remarkable, as they were all four going along, they saw Tyburn before them; upon which, George Ellis< no role > said to his Son-in-law Patrick Bourke< no role > , There is the fatal Place where you and I shall end our Days, if we go on in this manner of Life. Bourke reply'd, No, D - n me if I do, for by Jesu if I am hang'd, I'll be hang'd in mine own Country by St. Patrick. There they killed eleven Weather Sheep, and took the Fat of them, and sold it to the aforesaid Tallow-Chandler; two of the Sheep had Bells about their Necks, which they took off, and threw away.

AFTER this, about the Month of May last, in the Night Time, the same Persons went into a Field near the White Horse , in the Parish of Stepney , and there they killed nine Sheep and two Lambs, and took out their Fat, which they brought to Town, and sold to their Old Customer.

ABOUT nine Weeks ago, Bourke and Ellis went into a Field near Hurlsdon Green , in the Parish of Willsden, in the County of Middlesex , and there killed Ten Ewe Sheep, took out their Fat, and brought it to Town, and sold it to the said Tallow-Chandler. This was the last Fact they committed before they were brought to Justice, which was after this Manner, viz. Bourke having some Words with his Wife, (the same Day that Ann Barefoot< no role > This name instance is in set 3829. and Ann Duck< no role > This name instance is in set 3827. were executed) he beat her in a cruel Manner, which so enraged Ellis her Father, that he went to a Constable, and desired he would take Charge of him, but the Constable would not concern himself with the Matter: Then said Ellis, if you will not take him up for that, I can prove him a great Rogue upon another Account. Bourke happening to hear of his Father-in-Law's Intentions, went immediately before Sir Thomas De Veil< no role > , Knt . and gave an Information against him and two others, which Patrick Bait< no role > and Fellomy Connelly< no role > hearing of, made their Escapes; but Bourke and his Father-in-Law were both committed, and met with their deserved Fate.

THE said Bourke was condemned for the same Crime about Three Years ago at Ely in Huntingtonshire , but the Day before he and two others were to be executed, he made a Breach in the Condemn'd-Hole, whereby he not only escaped himself, but let the other two out; one of whom was for Horse-stealing, and the other an Irishman for Robbing his Master. When he had thus obtained his Liberty, the next Difficulty was how to get his Fetters off, being double iron'd; as he was going along, he spy'd a Miller's Horse, which he mounted, and rode side ways, on Account of his Fetters, to a little Village about 3 * Who is in the New-Goal, and is to be tried the next Assizes, that is to be held for the County of Surrey, for buying the said Fat of Patrick Bourke< no role > , George Ellis< no role > , and the rest of them.
