Regina v Z. Williams

William Davis - I am a collier - and
live at Nantyglo - I attended a Chartist
meeting at Zephaniah Williams' House
before the Riots - I can't say how long
before the Riots - Wednesday was the
Lodge day - The Wednesday before the
Men rose was the time when I saw
Z Williams there - He said something
about the Reform Bill - I can't tell
what - He said something about the
Charter - That we should get the
Charter - the Prisoner said the way to
get the Charter was for every body to
stand out and not work - He said the
Tredegar people were coming to the
Mountain and told us to be there there to
meet them on the next Sunday Evening
Prisoner said he could not
say whether the people would be on the
mountain Saturday night or Sunday
night - a Boy William Jenkins
went to the meeting with me - this Boy
works with me sometimes - I went to
I went to the Mountain about 8 or 9 o'clock on
Sunday Evening before the Riots I did
not see Z Williams there - I never
had the List - James James never
gave it to me - I ran home
from the Mountain - this is all
I know
