245 02 A true and tragical song, concerning Captain John Bolton,
of Bulmer, near Castle-Howard, :|bwho after a trial of
nine hours, at York-Castle, on Monday the 27th of March,
1775, for the wilful murder of Elizabeth Rainbow, an
Ackworth girl, his apprentice; was found guilty, and
immediately received sentence to be executed at [T]yburn
near York on Wednesday following, but on the same morning
he strangled himself in the cell where he was confined,
and so put a period to his wicked and desperate life. His
body was then pursuant to his sentence, given to the
surgeons at York infirmary to be dissected and anatomized.
To the tune of "Fair lady lay your costly robes aside"
