Lord Bellasis, the supposed Atkins, and another man whom he had often seen in the chapel and afterwards recognised as Prance.[263] The next day Le Fevre described the murder to him in detail. Before 5 o’clock in the afternoon of October 12 Le Fevre, Walsh, and Lord Bellasis’ gentleman had brought Godfrey from the King’s Head Inn in the Strand to Somerset House under the pretext of taking him to capture some conspirators near St. Clement’s Church. They took him into a room and, holding a pistol to his head, demanded the informations which he had taken. On his refusal they stifled him with a pillow and then strangled him with his cravat.[264] On Monday night the murderers agreed with Bedloe “to carry the body in a chair to the corner of Clarendon House, and there to put him in a coach to carry him to the place where he was found.”[265] Two accounts of the same facts could hardly be imagined to differ more from one another than the stories of Prance and Bedloe. To state the matter briefly, Bedloe swore that Godfrey was murdered in one place, at one time, in one manner, for one motive, by one set of men; Prance swore that he was murdered in another place, at another time, in another manner, for another motive, by another set of men. Both Prance and Bedloe swore that they had seen the body of Sir Edmund Godfrey at nearly the same time in a room in Somerset House on the night of Monday, October 14, but Prance swore only to the presence of the men whom he had named as the murderers, while Bedloe swore only to the presence of the men whom he had named, with the addition of “the other person he saw often in the chapel,” whom he afterwards recognised to be Prance.
