Ears being cut off!!
@philjohncreates.bsky.social Oliver St John was MP for Totnes.
18 June, 1637, the Privy Council meets at Greenwich and Charles I is angry about William Prynne. He orders a 'strict examination' of his defence attorney, and an investigation as to why Prynne's ears weren't cut off properly the first time.

The defence attorney was Oliver St John.
