That Borisky had confessed he shot into the Coach at the command of Urats, and that Urats had confessed he went to compel Esquire Thinn to fight him, and that for his affronts put upon Count Konningsmark, he desired Stern and Forisky only to see fair play, saying that the latter fired without his Order, but it being proved fully, not only by their Examinations before the Justices, but likewise they in Court confessed the same; the Council proceeded to prove that the Count was the Principal contriver of this Murder, whereupon one Mr. Hansoy, Tutor to the Count's Brother was called, who gave Evidence, that he had entertained Borisky in his Service, but the Friday before the Murder, and that he had bought him a Sword and other Acoutrements for Horsemanship.  
Dr. Frederick Harvey being Sworn, testified, That the Count was his Patient, and that he had a breaking out in his Breast, which caused him to disguise himself, because he would not be obliged to Drink or Sort himself with any Company. A Foot Boy of his was likewise Sworn; who testified, That Urats was commonly with his Master, and that the Night the Murder was done, he came thither, and the Count the next Morning fled, having shifted his Lodgings three or four times.
