He also administers the oath to the witnesses, requiring them to speak truly. He writes down the proceedings in the rolls of the Court; the accusation; the names page viii of the witnesses; the verdict of the Jury, convicting or acquitting; and the judgment of the Court. These rolls are carefully preserved.
