At the sessions held at Wakefield on 13 July 1647, John Reyner of Birstall had said on oath that before Christmas last he was in company with Thomas Holte of Liversege, butcher, who drank a health to the confusion of the Parliament ‘and all that took their part’ and called him ‘Roundhead Reyner’, and declared ‘by the blood of God, he cared not if he killed this deponent’.
