Terrible and wonderful news from Scotland, or, A dreadful warning for usurers and extortioners. Being a full and faithful relation how a most miserable griping usurer and oppressor of the poor, living near John a Grotes house in the Highlands, was on the third of May last past, carried away by an evil-spirit, and hurried too and fro in the air two days together, in the sight of thousands of people, and at last his body torn to pieces, and dropt in several places. / Communicated in a letter from one in the Highlands to a friend in London; dated from Glascow the 12th of May.
