Iames Treuisam.
HEe was of the parish of Saint Margarets in Lothburie: he was lame and kept his bedde, and could not rise out of it a long time; one Iohn Smale his seruant read to him on the Bible; in the meane time Berd the Promoter came in∣to the house, and went vp the Staires, where he found foure persons besides Tre∣uisam and his wife, which he carried to the Counter, where they remained a fort∣night, and he brought a Cart to the doore to haue the lame man to Newgate, but that his neighbours intreated for him, and put in sureties for his appearance. One Master Farthing the parson came to him, and communicated with him, and they agréed well. Then one Toller méeting the Priest, said, if you be agréed I will ac∣cuse you, for he denieth the Sacrament of the Altar: then the parson went to him againe, and then they could not agrée; whereupon the parson told Bonner, and hee said he should be burned, and if he were dead he should be buried in a Ditch; so when he died he was buried in More-fields, the same night he was digged vp, and his sheet taken away, and he left naked vpon the ground, then the owner of the field buried him againe, and fortnight after the Somner came to his graue, and summoned him to appeare at Paules before his Ordinary; but what more was done, I haue no certainty of.
