Houlton. Not one.
C. for the Prisoner. I think you said that you was officiating clergyman to the Prisoner?
Houlton. I did say so.
C. for the Prisoner. And pray, Sir, what was your office?
Houlton. To pray with the sick, and return thanks for their recovery.
C. for the Prisoner. Very extraordinary, truly. Give me leave to ask you, whence you took this very exact account of the number of persons inoculated by the Prisoner?
Houlton. From Mr. Sutton’s books.
Couns. for the Prisoner. I beg, gentlemen of the jury, you will observe that this account of the number of persons inoculated, and consequently of the number of lives preserved, one of the crimes of which the Prisoner stands accused, was taken only from his own books. This is a material circumstance, and I make no doubt but you will give it its due weight.
Couns. for the Cr. Have you any other question to ask this witness?
Couns. for the Prisoner. I have done.
