HENRY WILLIAMS, alias MARTIN , MICHAEL WILLIAMS, alias FLINN , and FREDERICK WILLIAMS , were indicted for stealing, on the 6th of July , at St. Michael, Queenhithe , a wooden tea-chest, value 2 s., and 90 lbs. weight of tea, value 20 l., the goods of James Rand … The prisoners' Counsel called MARY DUNN . I am the wife of John Dunn , and live in Benbow's-rent. I have known Henry Williams eight years, as a boot and shoe-maker. The witness Ketling was in my room on the 4th of May; I know she had quarrelled with the prisoner Frederick: she said she would have her revenge on him, and should like to see him hung, and if she had her will she would hang him, for revenge was sweet - she said that three or four times in my room. COURT. Q. How came you to recollect that it was the 4th of May? A. Because it was exactly a month before my child died, which was on the 4th of June. I told Frederick's wife of this, and was subpoened here. One witness gave the prisoner Frederick a good character, and one appeared for Michael. H. WILLIAMS - GUILTY - DEATH . Aged 28.
