1658, May 11. His [first wife, Herondias Hicks] 'being the mother of many children,' came with her babe at her breast, from Newport to Weymouth, to deliver her religious testimony, for which she was carried to Boston, before Governor John Endicott, who sentenced her to be whipped with ten lashes, as well as her companion, Mary Stanton, who came with her to help bear her child. After the whipping with a three fold knotted whip of cords, she was continued for fourteen days longer in prison. The narrator, (Bishop's New England Judged), says: 'The woman came a very sore journey, and (according to man), hardly accomplishable, through a wilderness of above sixty miles, between Rhode Island and Boston.'
'After the savage, inhuman and bloody execution upon her, of your cruelty, aforesaid, kneeled down and prayed the Lord to forgive you.'
