Pretrial notes: Commission for trial issued but suspect had already been imprisoned. The commission specified that no torture was to be used. Text of the commission in JC10/4 (English)
Trial notes: She had a Privy Council commission for trial, but was tried in front of what looks like a local trial with central representation. Edinburgh officials were sent out to the trial, and the trial appears in the minute books of the circuit court. Post trial: to be executed between 2-4 in the afternoon (English)
