500    Verse, in thirty-four numbered stanzas, concerning Elizabeth Wilson, who was executed at Chester, Pa., on January 3, 1786, as an accessory to the murder of her twin infants. Cf. A faithful narrative of Elizabeth Wilson (Evans 19635-19639).
500    The only known copy, held by the American Antiquarian Society, is badly mutilated; title from surviving portions of title and first lines of text.
