side, arid he was so strongly affected by the sight
that he could not refrain from tears. On eael!
of the waggon was placed a file of pikemen ; the Go.
vernor of the Jail. anti several Sheriffs' Officet rrc2e
immediately behind ; the Chaplain and the. !...;11eriff-
Depoty followed in carriages.
In this order the procession moved slowly towar.23
the Heath, the criminal frequently turning up 1.;;
eyes to Heaven, and ejaculating " 0 Leon, hare
mercy upon me! Omar, have mercy upon me.'
About 100 yards him the prison mate his meth
caught his eye iii the crowd. He did not appear to
he much moved at seeing her, but bent his head to
wards one of the officers who sat before hi:n,
said, " Mind, tell Mr. Bowen to do something 1(c
my family." The procession arrived at the place of
execution about ten minutes before twelve o'clock,
and the waggon was drawn up alongside of the
scaffold. The Chaplain then joined the criminal in
prayer, and the. stillest silence pervaded the imam...!
crowd, who stood uncovered while the service was
reading. The criminal, who had knelt down biimr.
Hackers side, joined in the prayers with as much
fervour as his agitation would permit. His hands
were clasped together and uplifted, and his eyes were
sometimes directed downwards to the book in the
Chaplain's hand, as if he did not understand what
was read ; occasionally they were turned up to Ile:.
yen, but during ;he greater part of the time
wandered unconsciously over the crowd, without a:,y
definite direction.

When the devotions were closed, and the criminal
was about to be removed from the waggon, he ob.
served near him Mr. Hay, the Barrack-Master of
Woolwich, and said he wished to speak to him.
Hay came forward and said, " For GOD'S sake, Ne 3.
hen' be sincere ; consider what you are about, and
tell the truth." He replied, " I have told the trazi
already, and nothing but the truth. My family
knows nothing of my guilt, and I hope yc,u will co
something for thern' Air. Hay asked him if he had
confessed his guilt ? and he replied, 44 I have con.
fessed it to another person." He then mounted t::e
stage with a firm step, and the executioner proceeded
to put.a cap over his eyes, and to adjust the rope
round his neck. Having seen Mr. Bowen, of Wool-
wich, near the scaffold, he called to him, and said,
" Mr. Bowen, I hope you will have some regard to
my family. Poor things! they are innocent. None
that belongs to me knows anything of my doing,"
Mr. Bowen called to him to confess his crime, cn
which he replied, " I have made all the confession I
had to make. That will be known after lam gone,
The people is convenient that kat it. It is enough for
one person to know."

Ai five minutes after twelve o'clock the fatal sic-
nal was given. He did not-seem to suffer more tli.n
one minute. The body, after hanging the usual time,
was cut down, and conveyed in a shell to Mes:it.
Day and Watman's, to be anatomized, pursuant to
his sentence.

Previously to his trial, Nesbett had prepared the
following declaration; in his own hand-writing, to be
-delivered to Mr. Hay, the Barrack-Master of Wool.
