[Joseph Gray] […] I went at seven o'clock to George Armstrong's; he was not at home; then I went to Cotterell's; he told me he would bring his and Bob's there, to the Cock and Hoop at the corner of Dunk-street; I went then and informed Mr. Bond of it; he sent Mr. Senhouse to the Cock and Hoop to watch; [...] when Senhouse saw them he went out; we sat down in a box; Cotterell said, Joe, these are three pieces for each of us; Cotterell swore I should sing; I said I would not till after he had sung; he sung a song, and while I was singing one, Sir John Fielding 's people came in, and secured them[.]
