Sometimes he work'd at his own Business, as one or two upon the Trial declared; and he own'd, that by his Business he might have maintain'd his Wife and Family, had he been contented with his Lot.

As to the Fact he dyed for, he could not deny it altogether, but would not own it as Cravenaugh swore it against him. He was a biggotted in the Romish Catholick , and made but little Confession; he believed in Christ, repented, and died in Peace with all Men.
