Plot and traiterous Design for the destruction of his Highness Person THe Common Enemy having failed in all their former Plots and Conspiracies for the ruine of his Highness and the Government resolved it seems at last to bring about their intended Mischief by a vigorous and bloody attempt upon his person For this end and purpose they sought out and gained to themselves instruments in all points fitted for the execution of their inhumane Cruelty The principal man employed was a notable desperate fellow named Sindercomb one who heretofore had been a Quartermaster under Sir John Reynolds in the Army and was about two years agoe cashiered by Generall Monck among others in Scotland As Assistant to him in this wickednesse he associated to himself one Cecil and many others were engaged in the Businesse whom we hope time will discover in the mean time only these two persons are in custody For the carrying on their work they held correspondence with some in Flanders received directions thence from time to time and for their encouragement Don Alonso the late Ambassador of Spain in England returned them over sums of money with which they were enabled to proceed The most likely way as they conceived to accomplish the devilish purpose was to contrive some means how to dispatch his Highnesse as he should be going to Hampton Court and that they might do it with security to themselves by having an opportunity to escape after the fact committed they took a House at Hammersmith which house hath belonging to it a little banqueting room which stands upon the Road at the said Town in a narrow durty place of passage where Coaches use to goe but softly and that Room they meant to make use of by planting an Engine in it which 〈…〉 charged would have upon occasion torn away Co●●● and person in it that should pass by and they had such an Engine preparing And because it was necessary for them to have information of the times when his Highness should goe abroad to take the ayre and the places whither Sindercomb cast about in his mind which way to draw in some one person near his Highness to be a partaker in the design and acquaint them in what part of the Coach his Highness should sit going to Hampton-Court that so they might be sure not to miss him and when the execrable Deed should have been executed they intended to have made an escape For this purpose they had bought up divers of the fleetest Horses about London which they kept in that House at Hammersmith and for conveniency of escaping the House they had hired stood down at some distance from that Road and had an out-let to another Road The person whom they made sure as they thought to be their Informer touching the Out goings of his Highness was one of the life Guard who had formerly been an acquaintance of Sindercomb in the Army and they gave him ten pounds in money at first to engage him adding thereto a promise of Fifteen hundred pounds This was one way that they resolved on by making use of the place at Hammersmith But they were not negligent in seeking other opportunities besides and therefore as occasion offered many times they were wont to thrust themselves in among those that rode abroad with his Highnesse Once they thought to have don their work as his Highness was taking the air in Hide-Parke and to make way for their escape they had in one place filed off the Hinges of the Gates and rode about with the Train attending his Highness with intent then to have given him a fatall Charge if he had chanced to have galloped out any distance from the Company After severall attendances of this nature and pryings up and down having also recourse many times to White-hall and finding no occasion as yet to favour their purpose thereupon they resolved to 〈…〉 Correspondent a proof of their 〈…〉 White hall To this end they cut a hole in 〈◊〉 of the doors of the Chappel and so unbolting it they on the eighth of this moneth went in and placed the materials for firing which were discovered about nine a Clock that night for in one of the Seats was found upon the Floor a Basket filled with a strange composition of combustible stuff and two lighted matches aptly placed which matches had been rub'd over with gunpowder on purpose to keep them surely burning and by the length of them it was conceived they would have given fire to the Basket about one a clock in the morning The Basket being removed and trial made of some part of the ingredients it appeared to be most active flaming stuffe The next day the two persons being apprehended they were found to have scrued Pistols which upon tryall appear notable
