Two years later, when there had been a fresh outbreak, and the executive was • I'itcairn's ' Criminal Trials, ' vol. Iii.
Upper Teviotdale and the Scott s of Buccleuch. 273 at its wits end, so to speak, the King's proposal was so far adopted that a hundred and twenty of the broken men of the Borders were apprehended and sent to the Bohemian wars, with Colonel Andrew Grey. * The summary, and off-hand way in which criminals were put to death, with only the merest pretence of trial, must often hav...e led to great cruelty and injustice. It may be questioned, however, whether hanging had greater terrors than being thrust into the filthy dens which had to do duty for prisons, where the prisoners had to depend on their friends, or on chance charity for their support ; for there was no jail allowance.

The steeple of St Mary's church at Hawick was used for this purpose.
