Extract of a letter from Barbadoes, Dec. 31.
" Three days since, Mr. Hutchenfon, a weal
thy planter ofthis Island, was executed for the
murder of his particular acquaintance, Dr. Wat
kins. - We have not such solemnities often ; but
when they do happen, they are much heightened
by a striking procession; Mr; Hutchenfon was at
tended to the place of execution by a captain's
guard, in addition to that of the civil power, the
drums and fifes playing a dead march. The
wife of the unfortunate convid paid him the
hft visit on the fatal morning of his exit, and
stayed with him so long that the interposition
of her friends was neceffaryto feperate them in
order to carry his sentence into execution: 110
sooner, however was this done, than die mount
ed her horfe,rode within a hundred yards of the
gibbit, to wait the death of her husband, and per
form the last office, in feeing his remains placed
theinh erfe, all which ftefiipported with singular
fortitude. The criminal bore but an indifferent
character, indepehdentof the crime for which he
fuffered ; but from themoment of his conviction,
no man could conduct himfelf better, or discover
more real penitence. A prodigious concourse of
people attended his execution, which, was on the
pier at Bridge-town, close to the water's edge, af
fording a diftin&, but melancholy fpedacle to
the Britilh fleet lying at anchor !"
