session: but these named in the Case not suffering any except
one, or two of your Honourable Bench to give her, or the
Child so much as a craft of bread, or a cup of cold Water
endeavouring to starve them there; nay they are so malici-
ously bent as to indile two honest neighbouring Women for
attempting to cary victuals to the destressed. It's hoped therfore
that this Honourable Bench will discharge the innocent
neighbours; and pilly the Cafe, and condition of your petitio-
