| Were the powder mills at Hounslow ready as a snare? The murdered woman - more a match for the man, certainly, in point of years - was found dead in a barn near Hounslow Heath. They told me one night that there was brought into the prison late the night before three highwaymen, who had committed robbery somewhere on the road to Windsor, Hounslow Heath, I think it was, and were pursued to Uxbridge by the country, and were taken there after a gallant resistance, in which I know not how many of the country people were wounded, and some killed. |
