she was taken up she was well provided with necessaries for her support, but according to custom was soon stript of all, and as these wretches have rarely any friends, so when under sentence, she was miserably poor and naked, which brought her into a state of seeming penitence; her tears flowed very plentifully, and she said she believed in Christ, and not being able to war with the world any longer, very honestly died in peace with all mankind.

At the Place of EXECUTION.

FRiday June the 7th , the seven malefactors, appointed for execution, appeared at chapel at six in the morning, where they all behaved with great decency.

AT their coming to the place of execution they all seemed extreamly terrified at their approaching dissolution, so that in their then situation very little could be obtained from them more than is previously mentioned.

Edmund Gilbert< no role > , who was convicted for the murder of his servant, seemed to have no kind of inclination to make any further discoveries of his life and conversation, but on the contrary appeared extreamly sullen and reserved, answered me, that he had said as much as he chose to say, already, and therefore desired to be left to his own reflections; he seemed to be more shocked at his ignominious fate, than sorrowful for the fact, and left this world seemingly a good deal unconcerned for the actions of his life.

George Norton< no role > , reflected with great bitterness against the evidence whereby he stood convicted, but seemed modest enough to acknowledge the rectitude of the law in his conviction; a mixture of passion and terror seemed to have got the better of his reason and penitence, so that he rather seemed to leave the world in anger than to be much concerned about it.

Stephen Parsons< no role > , here, as heretofore, appeared in every respect a true penitent, confessing his sins with great sincerity of heart, wept bitterly all the time, owned the justice of his conviction, and hoped for mercy hereafter, through the merits of his Redeemer, and left the world with great calmness and resignation to the will of heaven.

Samuel Keep< no role > , seemed very penitent, but could say little more, than that he was at peace with all the world; owned the justice of his sentence; seemed very desirous that the company would pray for him; hoped for mercy through Jesus Christ, and left the world in a good deal of tranquillity.

Edward Byan< no role > , only said that he believed in God and Jesus Christ. That he died a rigid papist, and in peace and charity with all men.
