Wouter van Honschoten, in the Year 1558

In this year a young brother named Wouter van Honschoten was arrested at Honschoten, in Flanders, for following the Word of God, and since he freely confessed his faith, and would in no way depart from it, he was finally sentenced to death and to the fire, and was burned as a pious witness of God.
