The said Examinate saith, That vpon Good-Friday last, there was about twentie persons, whereof two were men to this Examinates remembrance, at her said Grand-mothers house, called _Malkin-Tower_ aforesaid, about twelue of the clock: All which persons this Examinates said mother told her were Witches, and that shee knoweth the names of sixe of the said Witches. Then was the said _Iennet Deuice_ commanded by his Lordship, to finde and point out the said _Katherine Hewyt_, alias _Mould-heeles_, amongst all the rest of the said Women, whereupon shee went and tooke the said _Katherine Hewyt_ by the hand: Accused her to bee one, and told her in what place shee sate at the feast at _Malkin-Tower_, at the great Assembly of the Witches, and who sate next her; what conference they had, and all the rest of their proceedings at large, without any manner of contrarietie: Being demanded further by his Lordship, whether _Ioane a Downe_ were at that Feast, and meeting, or no? shee alleaged shee knew no such woman to be there, neither did shee euer heare her name. If this were not an Honorable meanes to trie the accusation against them, let all the World vpon due examination giue iudgement of it. And here I leaue her the last of this companie, to the Verdict of the Gentlemen of the Iurie of life and death, as hereafter shall appeare.
