that when the People of the Family by advice of the Neighbours and consent of the Maior, had sent for Florence Newton to come to the Deponent, she was always worse when she was brought unto her, and her Fits more violent than at another time. And that after the said Florence was committed at Youghall, the Deponent was not troubled, but was very well till a little while after the said Florence was removed to Cork, and then the Deponent was as ill as ever before. And the Maior of Youghal, one Mr. Mayre, then sent to know whether the said Florence were bolted (as the Deponent was told) and finding she was not, order was given to put her Bolts on her; which being done, the Deponent saith she was well again, and so hath continued ever since. And being asked whether she had such like Fits before the said Florence gave her the kiss, she saith she never had any, but believes that with that kiss she bewitcht her, and the rather because she hath heard from Nicholas Pyne, and others, that the said Florence had confessed as much.
This Mary Longdon having closed up her Evidence, Florence Newton peep'd at her, as it were betwixt the heads of the bystanders that interposed betwixt her and the said Mary, and lifting up both her hands together as they were manacled cast them in an angry violent motion (as it was seen and observed by W.

Upon which the Maid fell suddenly down to the ground like a stone, and fell into a most violent fit, that all the People that could come to lay hands on her could scarce hold her, she biting her own Arms and shreeking out in a most hideous manner to the amazement of all the beholders.

Whence several Persons after that, brought word that the Maid was in a Vomiting fit, and they brought in several crooked Pins, and Straws, and Wooll, in white foam like spittle in great proportions. Whereupon the Court having taken notice that the Maid had said she had been very well when the said Florence was in Bolts, and ill again when out of them, till they were again put on her, demanded of the Gaoler if she was in Bolts or no, to which he said she was not, but only manacled. Upon which order was given to put on her Bolts, and upon putting them on, she cryed out, she was killed, she was undone, she was spoiled, why do you torment me thus? and so continued complaining grieviously for half a quarter of an hour. And then came in a Messenger
