, shooting her with a Pistol with two Bullets thorow the Back, so that she died immediately, I told him, that by this barbarous Murther he had stained the Profession of Christ's holy Religion. He replied, that People had great Apprehensions of the Bloodness of the Fact, but that himself thought otherwise of it: for he said, that he had a Strong Perswasion that Mrs. Bullevant was a naughty Woman and in Conspiracy against the present Government. I replied, that he being a private Person ought not to have kill'd her, but to have made his ill Thoughts of her appeared in some Court of Justice. He said, he counted not the Fact to be Murther, for his Conscience stirred him up to do it. I told him, that 'twas a very wicked and devilish Act: I askt him whether any Person did hire him to kill Mrs. Bullevant? He said no. I askt him what Grounds of Malice he had against her? He replied, with Surliness, that he would not give any Account of it more than what he had said before. Hereupon I left him, after he had refused that should pray with him, as little concern'd for this Crime or any precedent part of an ill Life. Dr. Bedford, a City Minister, being appointed by the Lord Bishop of London to assist the Ordinary, did on Whitsunday, before the Doctor preach'd, endeavour to perswade him to join in the publick Worship at the Chappel, but he said he would only be directed by such who were of his own Opinion. He was conceited of his Knowledge, and discoursed not as a Phrentick Parson but behaved himself with a sullen Obstinacy at that time and since. The Omniscient God be pleased to perswade him to make a free and full Discovery of the whole Intrigue and Contrivance of this barbarous Crime.

, and that for his Sins God had exposed him to the Sentence of Death: He was of considerable Knowledge in the Concernments of Religion, and wish'd that he had led a Life sutably. He was not negligent in preparing for his Death, having little Hopes of being pardoned. He took much Pains in instructing the other Criminals in the close Dungeon, who told me that they received much benefit by him. I hope that he was truly penitent.

, Brother to Nathaniel, condemned for counterfeiting the currant Coin of this Kingdom. He said, that it grieved him that he had not lived a stricter Life, yet he hoped that by the Sentence of Death God had brought him to a deep Sense of his Sins, and that upon the searching of his Heart he hoped that he truly repented, and had made his Peace with God his eternal Judge. He was tractable to good Counsel.

, condemned fot ocunterfeiting an Excheque. He was a Gentleman of God Parentage, and said, that he had an Estate sufficient to maintain himself and Family; that he was very Sorry for the foolish and unjust Fact for which he is condemned. He kept the Lord's Days in the publick Worship at the Chappel constantly from the time of his Commitment. He mist not any Opportuty to prepare him for his Death, and said, if my Life may be spared, I am resolved by God's Grace to live strictly, and not to break again any known Law of the Nation. I hope he was truly penitent.

Upon his being askt in what Profession he died? Said, he died in the Faith of a Christian as revealed in Scripture, and desired to be left to his Ejaculations to God and himself; did not join in Prayer with the Ordinary, but was observed to move his Lips, but not to any articulate Utterance, however died seemingly very penitent.

The Ordinary continued a long time with them upon the Cart, in praying for and with them. The Cart drew away and they were turned off.

IT cures the Scurvy in the Mouth, and makes a good Pallate, and sweetneth the Breath, by dipping a Liquorish Stick sharpned at the end in this said Water, and rub your Gums there with as oft as need shall require: It whitens black and yellow Teeth, by rubbing your Teeth and Gums with a Tooth-brush dipp'd in this Water it fallens loose Teeth, and prevents their decaying, by holding half a Spoonful or more on that side of the Mouth which is afflicted, by causing the Rheum which falls upon the Nerves that lie under the Roots of the Teeth to come away to Admiration. It is good for young Children in breeding their Teeth, and fit to be taken inwardly for Fevers: In short, it is good for all Diseases incident to the Teeth or Gums.
