• John Hickson of Eastgate Ward, Chester.
  • QUARTER SESSIONS FILES 27th Nov. 1604 Examination of Nicholas Cooke of Chester. Being appointed a watchman for Eastgate ward last Monday night as he stood watching at the lower end of Cowlande (sic) near the house of Hughe Mottram, Constable, John Frances looking out of his window called the watchman rogues and rascals. When Hugh Mottram desired him to be quiet, Frances answered... "Thou art a Roge and a villaine, and more fitt to have a halter about the necke then to be any Constable, gett in to thy house and meddle with that hoore thy wife, that blodsooker Hickson, (mennynge her first husband) knoweth what sheys, and I will have him brought forth," and called her the miller's whore, and made threatening speeches.
