Abrahams (whom Armstrong called Lipe) were concerned
<

</
lb

with him in every thing he did, and no body else

Informant saw Armstrong stand at the bakers door
<

</

the Prisoners Abrahams was standing by him, and

</

Sanders on the opposite side of the way-Informant

Men whom Armstrong wished to see, were at Informant

house, and had got half a gallon of Beer, and he stayed
<
lb

</
lb

with them 'till it was almost drank out-the two Men
<
lb

</
lb

then began to be uneasy, saying, they had a long way
<
lb

</
lb

to go, and requested this Informant to go again to
<
lb

</
lb

Armstrong-he accordingly went thro' Floyd's Yard
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
by the Citemakers; into the same house where he had
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
before been with Armstrong-as he was going in at the
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
door, he saw a man in a great Coat coming towards
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
him-Informant went in, the other followed directs
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
the Caller was Armstrong-it was now near six O'Clock
<
lb

</
lb

Armstrong went up into his Room and took a brace
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
of Pistols; they were short ones; he examined them;
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
and one of them, he unscrewed, and perceiving they
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
were charged said, "they will do-Armstrong went
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
immediately into another Room, unlocked a Box, and
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
took some keys, which Informant imagines were
<
lb
>
</
lb
>
pick Cock keys, out of a bag within the box-Informant
<
lb
>
</
lb

has seen pick lock keys in Armstrong's hands-his
<
lb

</
lb

hand shook, and trembled very much, whilst examining
<
lb

</
lb

the pistols-he said to Informant "go carry this
<
lb

</
lb

great Coat home, and tell them two young men, "I shall
<
lb

</
lb

be with them soon" he told Lazarus, she might as
<
lb

</
lb

will go with Informant, as he was going home
<
lb

</
lb

Armstrong then went out, and Informant told

Lazarus, she might be damned, for he would go by himself
