A gold breast pin also was found, & the blue jacket which, now lies on the table in the pocket of the jacket was gunpowder & a cartridge or two. Some gunpowder was also found in an old stocking: it is now produced in court. There was also a blue coat, which I do not see here.

The old stocking, as I thought it, I now find on looking at it particularly to be the Sleeve of a shirt.
