In The possession Of these villsins, we're
found more thahOne hundred iron KEYS.

made, aud some III rough aud uniinisi-

construction al lOcl.s.
The names by which the accused now
IN prison have passed, since in this place,

and John y. Stubbs all of them, by pro-
fessiOu, mechanics. Tie former House
Carpenter, and The Two latter hlillwrighis,

Of false keys entered the vaults Of the old
