_Iames Deuice_ of the Forrest of Pendle aforesaid, in the Countie of Lancaster, Labourer, the third time Indicted and Arraigned for the death of _Iohn Hargraues_ of Gould-shey-booth, in the Countie of Lancaster, by Witchcraft, as aforesaid. _Contra &c._ To this Inditement vpon his Arraignement he pleaded thereunto not guiltie: and for his Triall put himselfe vpon God and his Countrey, &c. _Iames Deuice_ of the Forrest of Pendle aforesaid, in the County of Lancaster, Labourer, the fourth time Indicted and Arraigned for the death of _Blaze Hargreues_ of Higham, in the Countie of Lancaster, by Witchcraft, as aforesaid. _Contra Pacem_, &c. To this Indictment vpon his Arraignement, he pleaded thereunto not guiltie; and for the Triall of his life, put himselfe vpon God and the Countrey. &c. Hereupon _Iennet Deuice_ produced, sworne and examined, as a witnesse on his Maiesties behalfe, against the said _Iames Deuice_, was examined in open Court, as followeth. _viz._ * * * * * _The Examination and Euidence of_ IENNET DEVICE _aforesaid._ Against IAMES DEVICE, _her brother, Prisoner at the Barre, vpon his Arraignement and Triall._ viz. Being sworne and examined in open Court, she saith, That her brother _Iames Deuice_ hath beene a Witch for the space of three yeares: about the beginning of which time, there appeared vnto him, in this Examinates mothers house, a Blacke-Dogge, which her said brother called _Dandy_, which _Dandy_ did aske her said brother what he would haue him to doe, whereunto he answered, hee would haue him to kill _Iohn Hargreiues_, of Gold-shey-booth: whereunto _Dandy_ answered that he would doe it: since which time the said _Iohn_ is dead. And at another time this Examinate confesseth and saith, That her said brother did call the said _Dandy_: who thereupon appeared in the said house, asking this Examinates brother what hee would haue him to doe: whereupon this Examinates said brother said, he would haue him to kill _Blaze Hargreiues_ of Higham: whereupon _Dandy_ answered, hee should haue his best helpe, and so vanished away: and shee saith, that since that time the said _Hargreiues_ is dead; but how long after, this Examinate doth not now remember. All which things, when he heard his sister vpon her Oath affirme, knowing them in his conscience to bee iust and true, slenderly denyed them, and thereupon insisted. To this Examination were diuerse witnesses examined in open Court _viua voce_, concerning the death of the parties, in such manner and forme, and at such time as the said _Iennet Deuice_ in her Euidence hath formerly declared to the Court. Which is all, and I doubt not but matter sufficient in Law to charge him with, for the death of these parties.
