1. I Samuel Hill< no role > , aged 42, was born in the Parish of Penkridge in Staffordshire , of honest Parents, who brought me up to be a Shoemaker . Being of a wild Disposition when my Father died, I came up to London to a Brother and Sister I had then living in Town, with whom I lived one Year; then having an Aunt at Hawkhurst in Kent , I went down to her, and there worked at my Trade, having my Board with her, till she died. In her Will she left me 50 l. and having saved 20 l. of my own, I then married, and setting up in my Trade, had very good Business, and worked for a great Number of Smuggler s. About this Time Trip, alias James Stampford< no role > , came to live with me, and got me a great deal of Business in France and Holland , and I had my Money duly returned for some Time; but after a while, they would have me take up Tea, &c. which I consented to; and here was the Beginning of all my Misfortunes. I then entered into their Companies, or Gangs, and we were in all about 26 of us.

One Time when we were working Goods at Ledripe , being told that the Officers and Soldiers were coming to us, we mounted our Horses, and met them; upon which, the Officers bid the Soldiers fire at us. They did so, and we shot at them again, and killed four or five of their Horses, and wounded two of their Men: Then they fired at us again, and shot five of our Horses, and wounded four of us; and I was wounded through the Knee: However, we took them all Prisoners, and saved our Goods.

After this, I went to Boulogne in the Cutter, and was there cured of my Wound. I then came Home, and about three Weeks after we went to land some Goods, and met with the Officers and Soldiers again; at which Time we had three Horses shot, and I and another were taken Prisoners, and committed to Horsham Jail . We were confined there seven Months, and the Night after I got my Liberty I came to London , with several others, and riding into an Inn in the Borough , we were beset by an Exciseman, and four other Men. One of our Company was taken by them, but the other shot the Exciseman in the Thigh; and then we knocked them all down, and got clear off with our Goods.
