Helen Ferman
She did go to Thomas Leaman's house of St Lawrence's parish the last night to drink a pot, and going to go away, Hannah Leaman took her hat off her head and said that if she would not go up the chamber she should not have her hat. And going up with her there was two men there who would force her to sit down and drink with them all that night, and she could not get from them but they forct her there to continue and drink until the watch came this morning, at which time Leaman bade her go down the cellar that the watch might not find her.
