At the Place of Execution, to which they were this Day carry'd, viz. Mr. Carroll in a Coach, and John Read< no role > in a Cart, and where I attended them for the last time, I pray'd and sung some Penitential Psalms with them. I made them rehearse the Apostle's Creed; and then recommending their Souls to God, I left them to their private Devotions, for which they had some time allotted them.

They desir'd the Spectators to pray for them, and all Men to take Warning by them: And they earnestly pray'd to God, that he would have Mercy upon their Souls. Their Last Words (when just ready to be turn'd off) were such Ejaculatory Expressions as follow: viz. Mr. Carroll utter'd himself to this effect, Lord, forgive my Sins; Forgive me my great Sins! Deal not with me as I have deserved. Lord, look in mercy upon me! Lord, help me! Christ have mercy upon my Soul! Heaven save me! Lord comfort me! Lord receive me, &c.

And John Read< no role > , who seem'd to be discompos'd for his being brought a second time to this Place, thus cry'd to God for Mercy. Lord Jesus, wash away my Sins in thy Blood! Lord, save me, or I perish! Have mercy upon me, and help me! O God, the Father of Heaven be merciful unto me! O save my Soul for thy Mercies sake O Thou Lamb of God, and Lover of Souls, have mercy upon me, and receive me! Cast me not away; but help me and deliver me! Thou art my Helper and my Redeemer, Make no long tarrying, O my God! &c.

Here follows the Copy of Mr. Carroll's Paper, deliver'd to the Ordinary at the Place of Execution, which he desired should be inserted here for Satisfaction of the Publick.

I Was Born in Ireland , of a good Antient Family. My Name is Lawrence Carroll< no role > . I was Educated in the Roman Catholick Religion, of which I now die a Member, and as such I humbly desire to partake of the Communion of Saints, and Prayers of the whole Catholick Church, and hope that through the Merits of the Death and Passion of my Saviour Jesus Christ, I shall receive Pardon and Forgiveness from God for all my Sins, as I freely forgive all the World, and beg they would do the same by me.

As for my Conversation in the World, it has been, I own, very irregular, following the Vanity of the World, and in a manner wholly neglecting my Duty to my God, for which it has pleased the Divine Majesty to permit my present Affliction, and as such I receive it from the Hand of God.

As for the Fact for which I suffer, I am sensible I was guilty of it, not through any premeditated Malice, but through the Misfortune of my being in Drink, and the Misfortune of that poor Man, who, I suppose, did not know that I was so. I acknowledge my Fault, and am heartily sorry for it, humbly begging Pardon of God, and of the poor Man's Wife whom I killed, protesting, upon the Words of a Dying Man, that I am sory it does not lye in my power to make her amends, and to all the World also, whom I any ways offended. Yet, however, I am to this Minute Ignorant of any Circumstances of the Fact for which I dye: Nor do I remember that I had any Women in my Company upon that Occasion; tho' such a Thing was alledg'd against me at my Tryal. I beg that all young Men may take Warning by me, and think on their Duty to God, whose Mercy is great, and whose Justice, tho' slow, yet is very sure. I declare again, That I dye in the Communion of the Holy Catholick and Apostolical Church of Rome, and desire the good Prayers of all the Members of it; and, That I dye in Charity with all the World.
