A62413	A true history of all the memorable transactions that have happen'd in England, Scotland, Ireland, Flanders, &c. relating to state affairs, sieges, battles, sea-fights, and other naval matters With a particular relation of all the plots and conspiracies against the life of King William and his government, at home and abroad: also by what means they were discovered and defeated, by signal providences: from his coming to the crown, to this present year, 1696. Especially a large account of the late horrid conspiracy, to assassine his sacred life, and bring in a French power. Likewise the confessions and executions of divers of the conspirators, and other things worthy of note.	J. S.	1696 (1696)	Wing S99A; ESTC R3293	88,755	215
