TitleBoulton Siggers of Histon, blacksmith, exhibited articles of the peace against John Cross of Histon, labourer, vis: John Cross for the space of 3 months had continued a violent dislike and hatred and malice towards the articulant and Sarah his wife. Not only ill treating and abusing but threatening to do great bodily harm. On Sat January 5th, having killed one fowl, the articulant reasoned with him but John Cross declared that he would kill all his fowls and then would do for him and his wife. The articulant took this to mean that he would do some mischief or other bodily harm. The articulant on his oath believed that he and his wife go in danger of their lives or of receiving some hurt from the said John Cross. The articulant saying that he did not crave this from any hatred of John Cross, but for fear of the lives of him and his wife, or fear of mischief and bodily harm. Boulton Siggers was sworn to the truth.
