She denyed it at first but when I told her that Phillis had told me all about it, then she owned it. _Quest._ Had you no Reason before your sd. master dyed to think that the Powders you had of Robbin were given to your master or that he was poison'd therewith? _Answr._ No other Reason than hearing Phoebe the Saturday night before master died ask Phillis, if she had given him enough, to which she replyed, yes. I have given him enough, and will stick as close to him as his shirt to his back; but who she meant I did not then know, nor untill after master died. _Quest._ Was there no Discourse had between you Phoebe & Phillis about getting more Poison, after you had the first, of Robbin? _Answ._ The Fryday before my master died Phoebe told me that she had lost that stuff that I had brought to her from Robbin, and desired me to get her some more. I told her I wou'd when I went over to Boston; this was in the Forenoon, when she was washing in the back yard. _Quest._ Did you get her any more of Robbin? _Ansr._ Yes, and that was it which I gave to Phillis _Quest._ When did you go over to get the last Poison? _Ans._ on the Saturday night before my master died; I went over after Sunset; I went directly to Robbin; & told him I wanted some of the same I had of him before for that was lost, Robbin was then at the Corner of his master's House out in the street, he told me he could not get any then, but if I wou'd come on the Sabbath Day night he would let me have some, and I went to him on the Sabbath Day night after Candle Light, and he then gave it to me. _Quest._ Was there any Body with you on the Saturday night when you ask'd for the Poison, or do you know whether any Person saw you & Robbin together that Evening? _Answr._ No, nobody was there, and I dont know that any Body saw us together that Evening. _Quest._ How long was you with Robbin at Mr. Harris's Work house? _Answr._ I made no tarry there, but left him at the Pot house, and he and the young man that was with him followed me and overtook me a little below Mr. Waite's Slaughter house; And they went with me into the Lane leading from the market Place to the long Wharffe near Mrs. Shearman's, while I went into Mrs. Shearmans and got a mug of Toddy, in the mug I brought from Mr. Harris's Work house, and I carried it to them and they both drank with me. _Quest._ Had you any Discourse with Robbin in private or between you and him alone that Day?
