Pomfret—It was a steel sword, water-gilt, and as near as I can remember, there was blood upon it for the most part from the point upward.
Attorney-General—And what did appear upon Mr. French's sword?
Pomfret—There was water and dirt, but there was no blood at all.
Attorney-General—How long did they stay there?
Pomfret—They all continued about half an hour; and then went away, all but Mr. French, who staid there.
Attorney-General—What then became of the others?
Pomfret—Mr. James, Mr. Dockwra, and my lord of Warwick went away; and my lord of Warwick desired particularly, that we would all take care of Mr. French, for he was his particular friend; and Mr. French continued there till Sunday about one of the clock.
Attorney-General—Was there any discourse at that time about Mr. Coote?
Pomfret—Not that I heard of, one word.
Attorney-General—Was there any notice taken of any quarrel that happened between any body, and who?
