Tresham declined both offers (although he did give £100 to Thomas Wintour), and told his interrogators that he had moved his family from Rushton to London in advance of the plot; hardly the actions of a guilty man, he claimed.
Tresham a refuzat ambele oferte (deși i-a dat 100 de lire lui Thomas Wintour), și le-a spus anchetatorilor că și-a mutat familia din Rushton la Londra înaintea acțiunii; nu erau acțiunile unui om vinovat, sugera el.
