Margaret Davis Wife of Thomas Davis of
Newport in the county of Monmouth Labourer
States that on the morning of Monday the
4th November last about 9 o'Clock I went from my House
in Friars Fields to Commercial
Street and stood opposite Mr Williams' the
Druggist [Commercial St.] for the purpose of ascertaining the
truth of a Report that the
Chartists were come to Newport and also to
seek for my children who had left my
House for the purpose of going to School -
Whilst I was standing there I saw
a great number of Men come down Charles'
Street and turn the Corner at the bottom - they
- they came
and went up
Commercial Street towards the Westgate -
some were armed with pikes some with Guns and
some had Sticks - They passed me I said to some of them "Take God in your hearts and turn back - they went on I followed
them on the pavement - they were in the
Road - I went so far as Mr. Lloyd's Shop
opposite the Westgate I don't know how many there were - about a hundred I saw the other
party come down Stow Hill and join
the party that came up Commercial Street -
the both parties turned and faced the Westgate -
Whilst I was looking

about for my children I heard the Windows
of the Westgate dashed in - I also heard
firing - I was so much alarmed on
account of my children that I did not
look at the breaking in of the Windows
or at the men firing - The mark of

Margaret Davis
I did not see any men go up Charles Street -
