the Physician followed him, and saw him vanish into a Fire at the upper end of the Gallery. But though none of the Family received hurt at any time; yet Mr. Jermin fell into a Fever with the Disturbance he experienc'd, that endangered his Life.
ADVERTISEMENT.
MR. Scot and his Wife heard this Narrative from Mr. Jermin's own Mouth: And I also have heard it from Mr. Scot, who is a Minister of London, and the Author of a late excellent good Treatise, which is Entitled, The Christian Life, &c.
RELAT. XXII.
Contained in a Letter of Mr. G. Clark, to Mr. M. T. touching a House haunted in Welton near Daventry.
SIR,
I Send you here a Relation of a very memorable Piece of Witchcraft, as I suppose, which would fit Mr. More gallantly. I first heard the Story related to Sir Justinian Isham, by a Reverend Minister, of his own experience. Sir Justinian would have had me have gone to the Place, which I could not then do. But a little after, going to visit a Friend, and not thinking of this, my Friend told me the Story, the Place being near him, and the principal Man concerned in the Story being a Relation of his, and one that I my self had some acquaintance with. He had occasion to go to this Man's House for some Deeds of Land, and I went with him for satisfaction touching this Story, which I had to the full, and in which I could not but acquiesce, though otherwise I am very chary, and hard enough to believe Passages of this Nature.
