Under the aforementioned Count of Steyn (or
Witgensteyn) in Germany, though he was called
Reformed, the Anabaptists also at this time, had to
suffer much persecution for their faith.

A teacher of said faith, named Hemes Nimrich,
was apprehended together with several others. “He
was led to the gallows,” writes P. J. Twisck, “not
knowing but he was to be beheaded; but when
he arrived there, he was (as had been done to the
preceding persons) led through under the gallows,
and severely scourged; the other prisoners were
scourged out of the city.” Chron. van den Ondergang,
page 1590, col. 2.
