"The never to be forgotten Mr. _James Renwlck_ told me, that he was Witness to their Public Murder at the _Gallowlee_, between _Leith_ and _Edinburgh_, when he saw the Hangman hash and hagg off all their Five heads, with _Patrick Foreman's_ Right Hand: Their Bodies were all buried at the Gallows Foot: their Heads, with _Patrick's_ Hand, were brought and put upon five Pikes on the _Pleasaunce-Port_.... Mr. _Renwick_ told me that it was the first public Action that his Hand was at, to conveen Friends, and lift their murthered Bodies, and carried them to the West Churchyard of _Edinburgh_,"--not Greyfriars, this time,--"and buried them there.
