him; and, though he was his relation, he shot two
balls through his body, without ever asking him one question, and so
left him. And though he came again and asked forgiveness of him when
dying which he readily granted with some advice, yet the justice and
judgment of God seemed not to be satisfied; for in two or three years
after, he died under the terrible agonies of an awakened conscience for
the foresaid fact, and so launched to eternity.--_Wodrow_.

ANDREW DALZIEL, a cocker or fowler, but a debauchee. While Mr. Cameron
was preaching in a house in a stormy day near Cumnock, cried out, "Sir,
we neither know you nor your God." To whom Mr. Cameron said, "You and
all who know not my God in mercy, shall know him in his judgments, which
shall be sudden, and surprising upon you, &c." Accordingly in a few
days being in perfect health, he vomited his very heart's blood in the
vessel wherein he had taken his breakfast plentifully, and so expired in
a most frightful manner.--_Walk. remarks_.

JOHN SPIER a wicked wretch inlisted himself under major Balfour; and,
amongst other pieces of his persecuting work, he apprehended Mr. Boyd
(then a student) in Glasgow. A little after being ordered to stand
centinel at the Stable-green Port, he must needs to be sure, get up upon
the battlement of the Port, upon which he fell over, and broke his neck
bone and so ended his wretched life.--_Wodrow_.

JOHN ANDERSON, indweller in Glasgow, in the year 1684, was amongst
others prevailed upon to take that hell-hatched test upon his knee. Not
long after he took a running issue in his left hand and knee. And though
we are not to be too peremptory in drawing conclusions of this kind,
yet we may relate what this poor man's apprehensions of the causes
of this disease were. The disease still increasing, he still cried
out, "This is the hand I lifted up, and this is the knee I bowed to
take the test." And in a few days after he died in great horror of
conscience.--_Wodrow_.

WILLIAM MUIRHEAD vintner there, on his taking said test, rising from his
knees said to the administrator, "Now you have forced me to take the
test on my knees, and I have not bowed my knee to God in my family these
seven years." And though a rude wicked man, yet his conscience got up,
and next Sabbath he was suddenly seized with bodily illness, and in that
condition died.--_Wodrow_.

WILLIAM SPALDIE in Glasgow, a third, who there took and subscribed the
test, in a little after
