What he answered I find not in the process, but, when Main's indictment was read, he denied all, and so cleared himself by the unlikelihood and their impossibility to compass a business of that importance, to all that were present as in their hearts they did pronounce him innocent. Notwithstanding, they all three were convicted, and declared guilty of treason. Doom was only pronounced upon Drumwhassill and Mains, and they the same day hanged in the public street of Edinburgh. The gentlemen's ca...se was much pitied. Main's case especially. Hamilton, who made the delation, lived after this in continual fear, and abhorred of all men ; he kept still in the company of Arran until the alteration of the Court at Sterling, at which time James Johnston of Westraw, pretending a vow he had made to avenge Main's death, did kill him as he was flying through the park, on the south side of the town.' The object of the Court, however, was by no means gained by the death of these inferior personages. Sir Lewis Bellenden, Justice-Clerk, was sent on a special embassy to England in February 1585, with the intention 'of procuring hatred against the banished ^ Lords and Ministers.' He carried with him a copy of the book entituled ' The King's declaration of the late Acts of Parliament,' which was reprinted in London with some alterations and additions.
