Whereas Avicenna Jans, born at Delft, at present
a prisoner, has confessed, without torture and iron
bonds, before the count of Boussu, Knight of the
556
Golden Fleece, and the lord of Cruyningen, as commissaries
of his Royal Majesty and the court of Holland,
that he, the prisoner, at the time of the tumult
and uproar which recently occurred in this city of
Rotterdam, stood at the house of Kors Goverts
Brouwer, and that after said uproar was almost
over, he, intending to go home, in his consternation
went eastward, and again passed the house of the
aforesaid Kors, and having seen that the condemned
and strangled man, who had been cut down from
the stake at which he had been strangled, was
brought to the house of the aforesaid Kors Goverts,
he, the prisoner also went into the house; and that,
while the strangled man was yet lying in the street
near the door, and because some of the other
bystanders had said to him: “Take the man
(meaning the strangled man) further back,” he, the
prisoner, also seized hold of him; and that after the
strangled man had been lifted up and carried into
the house, he, since some had told him to see
whether there was yet life in the strangled man,
tapped the soles of his feet, and afterwards, in the
evening, returned home from the aforesaid house—

Here the account in said book of criminal sentences
abruptly ends; so that it remains uncertain what
was further done in the matter.
