At the top of the sheet at left bust and shoulders of a Quaker saying "Brother Peters what doest thow say" and opposite Father Edward Petre (1631 - 1699) in a Jesuit's cap, says, "Thou wilt be hang'd by yee & nay".

Nearly 200 people were hanged, and more than 800 transported to the colonies as indentured labourers.
