as Sir Thomas Kneuet with others scowted about the Parliament house espied a fellow standing in a corner very suspitiously and asked him his name what he was and what he did there so late who answered very bluntly his name was Iohn Iohnson Master Pearcies man and kéeper of his ledgings Sir Thomas Kneuet continued still his search in all places thereabouts and returning thither againe found him lingering there still searched him and found vnder his cloake a close Lanterne and a burning Candle in it and about him other signes of suspition that he stood not there for any good then the Knight entered the Vaut where they found the powder couered with billets and fagots as afore-said and then the Lord Chamberlaine caused the Traytor to â—e bound and being now about thrée a clocke in the
