Citation | BNL.729.013 21-27 Mar 1729:11 (117) From the British Gazetter, Nov. 16. Edinburgh, Nov. 7. Yesterday one Margaret Gobson, for the crime of theft, was drumm'd through the city in a very disgraceful manner; over her neck was fixed a board with spring and bells, which rung as she walked; at some inches distant from her face was fix'd a false face, over which hung a fox's tail; in short, she was a very odd spectacle. |
