A very old man named Gallus Schneider, from
the Seignioralty Wadischwyl, was also apprehended
in the year 1640, brought to Zurich, and there imprisoned
in the convent dungeon (Othenbach).

He was kept in irons sixteen weeks, and very
harshly treated, until he finally, when his faith had
been sufficiently tried, and been found immovable,
died in his bonds, having committed his soul unto
God, from whom he had received it. Compare
Jer. Mang. Tract, fol. 15, B., with Tract, M. Meyli,
fol. 7, A., num. 7.

Note.—About this time, an old sister from Horgerberg,
named Verena Albi, was also imprisoned,
but subsequently, through a certain means, delivered
out of bonds, but must still keep herself concealed.
Tract, Mang., and Meyli.
