Pretrial notes: She was confronted with Richard Graham, Jonat Straton, and Donald Robinson. High Court minutes narrate an argument about whether or not her confessions are enough evidence. Lots of arguments about her case here (heavy on procedure not much on what she was accused of). Debate about which confessions will stand and which items of dittay will be presented to the assize. (English)
Trial notes: We have pleadings about assize members. The assize was ordered by King James VI to convict and sentence her to death. They refused because she claimed pregnancy. The jurors were then prosecuted for willful error. Post trial: On 10 May 1591 the assize was charged with willful error. (English)
