She did refuse to giver her evidence upon oath and now appearing and persisting ye same obstinaey as she pretends out of conscience sake and therefore desiring to be excused, her father alos humbly seconding her request, the court have, out of their clemency, in consideration of her young years remitted her offence and releast her of her confinement..."
