George Read – Great Intrepidity Was Shown On The Part Of Our People
George Read said, "Great intrepidity [courage] was shown on the part of our people, who compelled the two ships to retire, not much to their credit; but it appears to me the ships were afraid the galleys would get below them."
Thomas McKean said, "John Roberts, you have been indicted, and after a very long, a very fair and impartial trial, been convicted of high treason. . . . May God be merciful unto your soul."
