TEW-DUNSE, (Oxfordshire) on the N. side of Steeple-Aston, has certain lands, which having bel. to St. Frideswide's-Mon. in
Oxford, were given by Hen. VIII. to his Coll. of Christ-church. Sir Ja. Chamberlain, Bt. has a seat here. It is very
memorable, what happened here, in 1650, to Sir Thomas Read's servant, Anne Green, who came to life, after being hanged at
the gallows, till she was thought dead even by those, who, as she desired, used means to dispatch her. For being carried
to a house to be dissected, where Sir Will. Petty, anatomy-professor, Dr. Wallis, Dr. Bathurst, &c. were preparing her
body for it, they perceived a rattling in her throat, and used such means to recover her, that within 14 hours she spoke;
and it was remarked, that she came to herself, just as if she had awaked out of sleep, beginning to speak where she left
off at the place of execution. The officers hearing of it would fain have had her back, to have compleated it; but the
Drs. and the mayor of Oxford kept them from it, till they got her a pardon; and she went to her friends at Steeple-Barton,
where she married, had 3 children, lived in good repute, and died in 1659.
