On Thursday, the 12th of November, after having endured nearly a month's
imprisonment, Jack Sheppard was conveyed from Newgate to Westminster Hall. But Bess could
scarcely summon resolution enough to hazard the experiment; and it was only on
Jack's urgent intreaties, and even threats, that she could be prevailed on to trust
herself to the frail tenure of the rope he had prepared. Again having recourse to the
centre-bit,—for Winifred's door was locked,—Jack had nearly cut out a panel,
when a sudden outcry was raised in the carpenter's chamber. ’
She giggled suddenly. He
had very nearly cleared the board, when a knock was heard below, and
descending at the summons, he found his two janizaries. And, in spite of the boy's resistance, he plunged his hands into his
pockets, and drew forth the miniature. They stank, and she hated how they
blocked the sunlight. The doctor turned quickly and made for the door,
which he opened and shut gently because he was assured that Ruth was listening
across the hall for any sign of violence. See what crime does, Sir. She doubted how she stood toward
him and what the restrained gleam of his face might signify. ’
He received a glare from his captive. "Impossible!" echoed Wild, with a fearful imprecation. "Take her," cried Jonathan; and, flinging the now inanimate body of the poor
widow, who had fainted in the struggle, into the arms of Thames, he leapt
through the window, and by the time the latter could consign her to Wood, and
dart after him, he had disappeared. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
