, who, I presume, for want of Consideration what he was about, shewed some Levity, unbecoming a Person so near his last Moments. When the Executioner had tied them all up to the fatal Tree, some Time was spent in recommending them to the Divine Protection; and then the Carts were drawn from under them, incessantly, while Breath lasted, calling on God, and Jesus Christ, to hear their Cry, and to receive their Souls. When they were cut down, their Bodies were delivered to their Friends; Mr. Baker's was carried away in a Hearse, Watling's and Carbold's in another, were carried down to their own Country; only Connor, and two others, 'tis said, were taken for the Use of the Surgeons. And the Execution was done with as little Noise and Disturbance as the Nature of so tragical a Scene will admit.</p>
