Old Book of the Martyrs Mirror: 1560s
Orvel, Jan and Pleunis, in the Year 1561
About this time Orvel, Jan and Pleun were separately arrested for the truth at Cologne, and since they steadfastly confessed the truth, and could not be moved by any kind of torture or crafty enticement, but remained faithful, they were finally taken out on the Rhine and drowned, having commended their souls into the hands of God, in the year 1561.
