Prince, the Governour and Magis- " trates had caused him to be tied, Neck and " Heels, for speaking for himself in Court, who 4 22 " denied him Satisfaction for his Goods, robb'd by "Barloe, as aforesaid, when he was had at the "Whipping-Post; with much a-do, he obtained "so much Moderation of the Governour, as to "hear him, who said in Answer, 'That he must "first pay for his Preaching, ' * * * and all this " was but for coming into their Jurisdiction, when "he was Banish'd out of yours. " 1 I...t would appear, therefore, that Wenlock Chris- tison and his friend William Leddra, with other Friends, obeying the order of the court of Massa- chusetts, left the jurisdiction of that colony only to experience more cruel treatment in the older and adjoining settlement of Plymouth. But the penalty of death, which was to be inflicted upon them in case of their return to Boston, had no terrors with men for whom a death on the scaffold seemed to possess a fascination that lured them to attempt its accomplishment, and who coveted the glory of dying in the cause of " Truth and Light.
