N° 2 Coll Bluster remarkable for nothing but the murder of an innocent Woman. N° 3 Jemmy Twitcher. N° 4 Cocking George one that never kept his Word with any on[e]." Labels issue from the mouths of the victims and the spectators. Each cart has a parson without a number; in the first cart (l.) he has a halter round his neck and is saying: "Lying &amp; Perjury &amp; Deciet are my chief supports". He is Dr. W.

L. to right.: "Remember St. George's Fields effectual murthers"; "Cocking George you dont Die Game"; "Take care Panurge the Halters Round your neck" (this is addressed to Dr. W.
