directly to Rochester to Esquire Lees House who lives near the Town and from thence to Dover by some By-way because he is acquainted at Sittingburn and said that if they could but get him on the other Side of the Water they would torment him till he had confessed to them who it was that had been with the KING and Informed Him of the business When the Deponent heard these Words he went down the Stairs with all the speed he could make and durst not return to his lodgings that night but lay in another place LXXX Item That the Deponent on the Seventh of September at night returned to his lodging where he intended not to lye but only to take some Necessaries for his use the next day but meeting with one Grigson a Papist at whose house he had formerly lodged near the Red-Lyon in Drury-Lane who told him the Jesuits were displeased with him because he had not answered their Expectations in being true to them and that the Jesuits were dangerous persons and would ruin him the Deponent if they could And the said Grigson said further That he had known their Roguery these Twelve or Fourteen Years And the Deponent being through Discourse detained by the said Grigson was forced to lye in his lodging in Drury-Lane and when he was lain down in his bed one Stratford a Person utterly unknown to the Deponent and whom he never discoursed or any way provoked endeavoured to break open the house where the Deponent lay and did break down a door to get into his lodging but was forced to Retreat because he law himself observed by some of the servants of the house And when he saw he could not come to Assassinate him as the Deponent verily believes he Reviled him and broke several Quarries of Glass in a Window under the lodgings of the Deponent And therefore being verily perswaded that the said Stratford was Imployed by the said Jesuits to do him a mischief made his escape thence early on Sunday Morning and did not return thither again because the said Stratford threatned to Kill him Now the house in which the Deponent lay Was a School where the within-mentioned Blundel used to Catechize every Sunday in the Afternoon LXXXI Item The Eighth day being Sunday whilst that the Deponent was going to attend the publique Worship of God in the City a Papist who goes by the Name of Nevil as the Deponent remembers met him in the Strand and told him That there was a very great Murmuring amongst the Jesuits against him because of a Complaint that was made against them by some Persons of whom they suspected him to be one And said further That the Deponent must either destroy the Jesuits or the Jesuits destroy the Deponent And told him Moreover That the Bishop of Rochester was made acquainted with the Complaint and would lead them such a dance as they never followed since the Fool their Founder appeared in the World To which the Deponent made no Reply suspecting this Person to be a Trappan and when at parting he asked the Deponent Where he Lodged the
