Pretrial notes: Warrant for execution issued. Financial accounts demonstrate that the local laird and others had attempted to obtain commission to hold the trial locally. These appear to have been refused and the trial was eventually held in Edinburgh. She was confronted by Marion Campbell. (English)
Trial notes: The prosecutor was the Lord Advocate. We have the assize verdict. Post trial: execution took place at Penston Muir not in Edinburgh between 2 and 4 p.m. (English)
