How they were found guilty of willful murder, by the Coronor's inquest how the ghost of the unfortunate sailor James Radford, appeared between the hours of twelve and one, in the dead of the night, on the 17th of August last, to a certain great personage, not far from Sackville-Street, who had willfully endeavoured to screen the said murderers from justice; and how the said great personage was so mortally terrified, that he has not been in his right wits ever since. With many other curious horrid and memorable circumstances, as the following true and impartial narrative shall make appear.
