by the loser of it, that there was near one thousand ounces. With this booty he lived well as long as the money lasted. Being short of money again he returns to his old trade, and where should he go to find something that would bring him money, but to Mr. Franks's house, where he had been successful before, and that he had never been discovered for it. For this purpose he appoints the two Brents to meet him near the place at such a time, and he would come to them. In the mean time he communicates, the affair to Sunderland, and asked him to go along with him, assuring him that as he knew the house perfectly well, he need not be afraid of its answering their journey, Sunderland at first seemed to refuse going, but as he told me that he had not a six-pence in his pocket at that time, necessity obliged him at last to comply - accordingly they met at the appointed place. Jones and the Brents, as they knew the house better than Sunderland, broke into it, while he kept a loot out: When they had finished their business, Jones and Sunderland came to London , and left the Brents behind, promising to send, them their share when the things were sold.

Whilst he was under sentence of death he behaved with seriousness and attention to the duties of the chapel, until he was prevented from coming there by sickness. He owned that he had had sufficient warning, as having been admitted an evidence more than once: He wished that the Brents would leave their ill courses of life, and consider that not only their own brother had lately suffered, but that
