The Norfolk gentleman's last will and testament: : who on his death bed, committed the keeping of his two children, (a boy and a girl) to his own brother, who did most wickedly cause them to be destroyed, that so he might possess himself of the children's estate, but by the just judgment of God, the murder was found out, himself, and all that he had were destroyed from off the face of the earth. To an excellent new tune call'd, Rogero: &c.
