Fairfax was General and Oliver Cromwel was Leiutenant General of the Army The latter over ruling overawing over fooling the former or else Dr. Hammond's Letter would have turned that violent Torrent which with him took no effect but was altogether slighted or unregarded but would have converted any unbjassed person from doing or suffering to be done such a bloody and unjust Act by so many impious Regicides Then the above named false and confused Society adjourned Hilary Term.

Slingsby and the Reverend and Pious Dr. Huit was beheaded under the Tyranny of Oliver Cromwel However he set up a High-Court of Justice called so then Dr. Huit was a very great and good Divine and though Oliver's Daughter very much besought her Father upon her knees for his life all was but in vain however it was believed that the Monster of mankind Oliver never enjoyed himself long after for he was much troubled with Gravel and a little after that was much tormented with the Stone in the Bladder and though Dr. Bowls set him on his head and his heels upwards to remove the stone and gave him some ease at present yet he being return'd to his natural posture and the Dr. into the Country with his Coach and Six which Oliver had bestowed on him for his fees and attendance the Stone pressed down again with that violence and force and caused that horrible pain and that pain a Feaver and the Feaver brought that which took the insolent Usurper from his Protectorship which happened Sept. 3. 1658.
