Comfort to the afflicted: or, The wonderous works of God, shewn to the widow and fatherless : Shewing how one Mary Blake, in the parish of Strutton, in the county of Kent, was left with 4 children, and being reduced to great poverty, applied to the parish, but obtained no relief. The poor widow went home to the children, bidding them pray to God for bread, and going herself up in a room, was going to murder herself. How a person appeared to her in white apparel, and assured her she would soon be comforted. Shortly she was delivered out of her miserable condition, and the church-warden was found dead in his bed, his head dashed in pieces, and his blood sprinkled on several parts of the wall.
