Their homes were invaded; their property was confiscated;their flocks and herds were driven off; their families were broken up;the aged and delicate, the women and children--all who would not yieldto their demands endured personal violence. The country groaned andstaggered under the cruelty authorized by King Charles, and practiced byhis agents.
Conditions became desperate; the wise were driven mad; patience ceasedto be a virtue; endurance was at the point of conflagration. Thousandshad to flee... and keep in hiding, to escape personal harm and even theshedding of their blood.
At this juncture of events, four young Covenanters, fleeing from placeto place for safety, came to a dwelling, where they found four dragoonspreparing to roast an old man on a gridiron, to extract informationconcerning his money. The sight shocked every noble feeling; theirmanhood was aroused, and their courage was greater than their prudence. They challenged the conduct of the soldiers, and were answered withdrawn swords.
