L. C. J. Holt. When was it that you spoke with Mr. Lowick about Murdering the King Harris It was Monday Tuesday Wednesday or Thursday I cannot be exact to the day but it was one of these days after the first Saturday I cannot be positive what the day was L. C. J. Holt. Well it was between the two days Harris Yes it was L. C. J. Holt. How did you know of that Design of Murdering the King Harris I was inform'd of it by Captain Rookwood the first Saturday and I met Mr. Lowick and had this Discourse about it and afterwards they informed me that Mr. La Rue did not lie at his Lodgings and the thing was discovered and they believed that Rue had discovered it And I desire you 'll call Mr. La Rue as to this Matter for I believe he will own it Mr. Soll. Gen. How came you to trust him with such a Discourse Harris Because we met there at Counter's Lodgings and we had several times Discourses of it there was Major Bernard and Captain Rookwood besides and I always declared against it as a barbarous inhumane thing not to be answer'd before God or Man and that we shou'd be odious to all the World if the thing were effected as I believed it wou'd not be I wou'd never shew my Head after such a thing Mr. Soll. Gen. Do you remember who began the Discourse of this matter Harris I cannot tell that I can't come to every particular Sir Barth Shower You said just now you apprehended Mr. Lowick to be a Man of Conscience and Honour Pray what were his Sentiments about it Harris His Sentiment was that he wou'd obey Sir George Barclay's Orders and he was sure Sir George Barclay wou'd not do it without Orders Sir Barth Shower Did not he declare it to be a Barbarous Design Harris I can't remember every particular thing that he said for I am not a Spy upon any Man's Actions Lowick When you were talking of that Design that you speak of pray did I consent to any such thing Harris I tell you how far you consented you said you wou'd obey Sir George Barclay's Orders and you was sure he wou'd not do it without Orders Mr. Mompesson Did you see any of Sir George Barclay's Orders Harris No I did not I was to follow his Orders but what Orders he had I cannot tell Mr. Sol. Gen. What did Sir George Barclay tell you you were to do Harris Sir George Barclay declared on the first Saturday that we were his Janizaries and talked of attacking and bringing away the Garter I cannot say this Gentleman was by then and afterwards Sir George Barclay went out and returned and came in again into the Room and declared that we were Men of Honour and that we were to attack the Prince of Orange Mr. Mompesson Did Sir George Barclay give the Prisoner at the Bar any Orders Harris I don't tell you he did Mr. Mompesson You say you met Sir George Barclay and Major Holmes upon the Road going to Islington How do you know the Prisoner was there Harris Why was not I with him I am very sorry to come upon this Account but you know it is Truth all that I say and I am sure you are sensible I do you no Wrong he met Sir George Barclay and Major Holmes and he went down and said something to Sir George Barclay in the Highway what it was I don 't know but I stood and Captain Rookwood and Mr. Bernard said something to him which you very well know Mr. Att. Gen. What was it Harris I can't tell Sir Mr. Att. Gen. We do not desire you to tell what you can't tell Is this all you know Harris It is all at present that I recollect Mr. Sol. Gen. Then pray swear Mr. Bertram which was done Mr. Conyers Pray will you give an Account to my Lord and the Jury what you know of this Intended Assassination and how far the Prisoner was concerned in it Bertram My Lord about the beginning of February last Major Lowick came to me and ask'd me if I wou'd espouse a thing with him that might be for my Advantage I told him that I thought I might espouse any thing that he thought fit to engage in Mr. Mompesson Whom did you tell so Bertram Major Lowick and he told me it was well and desired me to ask no more Questions I did not but it went on till the 14th of February when he desired me to be at his Lodgings at Twelve a Clock I was so about that time but he was not within and I staid till he came in and he took me up into his Chamber and told me he believed they shou'd Ride out in some little time and he told me he believed the King was to be seiz'd in his Coach and he gave me a Guinea to buy me Necessaries L. C. J. Holt. What Necessaries Bertram I can't say he named any Mr. Att. Gen. But for what purpose were those Necessaries Bertram I don't know that he named any thing indeed Mr. Att. Gen. Well Did he tell you when you were to be ready Bertram If you please to give me leave I 'll tell you He desired me not to be out of the way and the next Morning I was to meet him at the Purl House in Hartstreet I did not meet him and the next time I saw him I am not positive whether it was the next day after the Fifteenth when I was to meet him at Hartstreet but did not so but the next time I saw him he ask'd me why I did not meet him according to his Appointment I told him I had some Reason for it and he answered me again That he believed if the King had been in the Field I would have done the same but I have not seen him since till I saw him at the Bar. Mr. Att. Gen. Had you no Discourse of Horses that you were to provide Bertram I do not remember any particular thing more than I have told you Mr. Att. Gen. Did he not tell you what the Design was you were to go about Bertram He did not tell me of any other Design than as I tell you for he believed I knew of it I thought so at least the first time I knew of it was from Mr. Chernock L. C. J. H. What did he tell you was the Design that you should Ingage in for your Advantage upon Friday the 14th when he gave you the Guinea Bertram He told me he believed they should ride out very suddenly and that the King was to be seized in his Coach L. C. J. H. Did he tell you when the King was to be seized Bertram No he did not tell me when but this was the 14th the next morning I was to meet him at Hart-street but did not Mr. Sol. Gen. Who did he tell you the King was to be seized by Bertram He did not nominate any one else for he obliged me not to ask him Questions nor I did
