written by Edward Sexby under the pseudonym William Allen and often attributed to Colonel Titus. At one time a parliamentarian and involved in the capture of Charles in 1647 he later became disaffected with Cromwell and wrote the pamphlet Killing No Murder in 1657, arguing that the murder of a tyrant was no murder.
