Irish Papists elected out of most parts of Ireland desperate persons designed and appointed for that bloudy and desperate attempt all lodging and sculking in several places of the City and Suburbs waiting and expecting the time and watch-word when to give the onset One of their own Country-men at that time abhorring so foul and detestable a Treason revealed it to Sir William Parsons Knight and Baronet Master of the Court of Wards and Liveries and Sir Iohn Borlase Knight Master of the Ordnance both Lords Justices of the Kingdom of Ireland The party who discovered the plot had been formerly a servant to Sir Iohn Clotworthy but at the time when he revealed their designe he served one Capt. Mack-Mahowne an Irishman who lodged at the signe of the artichoak vulgarly called S. Maries Abbey in the suburbs of the City of Dublin The servants name was Owen Mack-Connel who being with his master Capt. Mack-Mahown in a house in Cookstreet at the lodging of the Lord Mack-Gueere also an Irishman in the City of Dublin Vpon the two and twentieth of Octob. being the night before his master did then and there reveal the whole plot unto him in the presence of the Lord Mack-Gueere and others This Owen Mack-Connel had married an English woman by whom he had children living in the County of Antrim in the Province of Vlster and she was and is a Protestant assoon as Owen Mack Connel had heard and understood the plot and their damnable intentions with a sad countenance asked his Master what should become of his wife and poor children he replyed in these words hang her English Kite we will get thee a better Wife But the Company perceiving that his thoughts were troubled at the relation of this horrid Tragedy now to be acted on the stage of Ireland that within few houres was to be in a flame of confusion the word to be given that man woman and child should have been butchered the next morning the poor mans heart failed him at this hellish and barbarous massacre whereupon these bloody Villains perceiving by the alteration of his countenance that he approved not or rather like a man amazed startled at such a bloody motion as to imbrue his hands of his owne dearest wife and children and that that is more of his owne Country and Kingdom they began to bethink themselves what to do with him they resolved to make him drunk and thereupon enforced him unnaturally to drink so much that he could hardly drink more yet they plyed him close he desired to be excused they to give him his load powred it downe his throat he resisting such unreasonable violence there steps towards him one Donal Mack-Gueere saying will you not drink your liquor see if you dare deny to pledge me thereupon set a pistol to his brest with two bullets the pan being primed with powder and brimstone that so it might not fail to speed twice it was offered against him and took no fire whereupon Capt. Mack-Mahown stept in and said let him alone God will not suffer him to be killed he will be on our side I warrant ye They afterwards led him from the lord Mack-Gueers lodging to Capt. Mack-Mahowns lodging but the poor man faining himself more drunk then he was and taking the advantage of the time and place willingly fell down in a dirty channel and was so bemired with mud that none would help him up but with much adoe he crept out of the kennel and reeled to the stoop of a door and sate downe to sleep he seeming to sleep the fellow which was left with him to watch with him departed which this Owen Mack-Connel perceiving assoon as ever his back was turned with a bold resolution arose up and went to the Marchants key in Dublin between eleven and twelve of the clock at night to Sir William Parsons house one of the Lord Justices of Ireland where knocking at the doore the Porter knowing him demanded of him what he would

to the other Or if you would see any other Towne that is not so much as 40 miles distant from Dublin then take the measure from Dublin to the Towne you would know and then set your Compasses to the
