Reading edition

The tenour of the articles entered into can be seen from the subsidiary agreement printed in Contemp. Hist. iii. 293, the declaration of Walter Bagenal and others against him, and the despatch of Corbet, Jones, and Ludlow in appx. to Ludlow’s Memoirs, i. 515. For Mrs. Fitzpatrick, ib. 340. In his preface to Contemp. Hist., iii. xviii., Sir J. Gilbert says the witness against her was suborned, but he gives no authority, and in the collection of massacres appended to Clarendon’s volume on Ireland, several murders by Florence Fitzpatrick are mentioned, Elizabeth Baskerville testifying ‘that Mrs. Fitzpatrick blamed the murderers because they brought not Mrs. Nicholson’s fat or grease, wherewith she might have made candles.’—Lodge’s Peerage, ed. Archdall, ii. 345.
