Joannes Paulus Zirafa from Attard testifies that close to his house there lived Lonza, wife of Pietro Pagano who had been captured as a slave by the infidels. One night he heard the playing of a tamburello and singing "alla Maltesa" in which song they called him a "sbirro" and other things. He recognised them to be Domenico Mifsud and Salvatore Grec. The next day he went to Casal Dimech and confirmed that the two were together the previous night, also in the company of Giuseppe Fenech and the soldier from the galleys who lived in Ta Zahui. He reported the matter to the Capitano della Verga. He was then assaulted with a knife by Domenico and Salvatore close to the tavern of Giovanni Camenzuli in Attard. They were fined four uncia, confirmed on appeal.
