Attorney-General—My lord, we have done with this witness.
Lord High Steward—My lord Warwick, will you ask this witness any questions?
Earl of Warwick—No, my lord.
Gibson, the other chairman who carried the Earl of Warwick, was then called, and gave substantially the same evidence as the last witness.
Applegate carried Lord Mohun to Leicester Fields, and corroborated the account of the journey thither given by the other witnesses.
Attorney-General—What then happened afterwards, can you tell?
Applegate—I cannot tell whether I had lighted my pipe, or was just lighting it, when I heard chairs called again; upon which we run up with our chairs towards the upper end of the fields, and there I did see my lord of Warwick within the rails, who bid us put over our chair into the fields; but we told him, if we did, we could not get it over again; and so we went with our chair to the corner of the fields; and when we came there, there came out captain French, who bid us open our chairs, and let him in, for he did believe he was a dead man; and upon that we did take him in, and he bid us carry him with all the speed we could to the Bagnio in Long-acre, and my lord of Warwick got into another chair behind; so we went to Long-acre; and when we came to the door of the Bagnio and captain French came out of the chair, he was so weak that he fell down upon his knees; and when he came out, I asked who should pay me, and desired to be discharged; and the earl of Warwick said, Damn ye, call for your money to-morrow; so they both went in at the Bagnio door together.
Attorney-General—Pray, who called for the chair first, captain French, or my lord of Warwick, in the fields?
Applegate—I cannot tell; but when I brought up my chair, I first saw my lord of Warwick, and he would have had me lifted the chair over the rails, and I told him we could not get it over again, and so went up to the upper end of the fields.
Attorney-General—If you first spoke with my lord of Warwick, why did you not carry my lord of Warwick?
