With the Paper he Read under the Gallows Signed by his own hand desiring it might be Printed as a Warning to all People c. to prevent their coming to Untimely Ends. AT the Sessions holden at the Old Bayly on the 28th and 29th of August last Eight Persons were Convicted of sundry Crimes which the Law makes death viz. Barbara Wolfe Lawrence Welsh Mary Cross Mary Amor Hannah Holding John Harman Elizabeth Locker and Greenway Feild But passing over the rest who have hitherto been respited from that Penalty expressing at once their Sorrow for Sin and Thankfulness for Mercy received we shall in this Paper give an Account of the penitent Behaviour and pious End of Mr. Feild the onely person of the Number yet Executed After Sentence of Death had passed upon Mr. Feild for the Murther of Mr. Charleton he being Remanded to Newgate was visited by many able Divines as Dr. Horneck Mr. Wells and others who gave him spiritual Consolation and were aiding to Mr Ordinary in that Pious and Christian like Duty to whom he gave Attention receiving the Sacrament and expressing no small Acknowledgment for the Mercies of God and the Favor of the King that he had a longer time than usual to repent of his Sins enquiring after saving Knowledge and praying frequently behaving himself modest and seemly in all his Carriage and Actions when on the 25th of September Instant the Day of his Execution about Ten of the Clock in the Morning having a little before been visited by the Divines and some of his Relations he was put into a Cart and conveyed to Tyburn where Mr. Ordinary and Mr. Wells being in the Cart with him after he had declared himself to be a great Sinner and desired Forgiveness of all he had Injured desiring the Spectators to be warned c. being demanded what he had further to say he produced the following Paper publickly reading it with an audible Voice then gave it to Mr. Ordinary and desired it might be printed and published GENTLEMEN SInce it 's my hard Fate to die this Igneminious Death I suppose it 's expected I should give some account of my self as well for my past Life and Conversation as for the Fact I die for I shall briefly do it for your Satisfaction and I hope it may serve for a Caution to others I was born of good Parents in the County of Somer setshire where I had good Education in the Free School of Bruton I since served an Attorney some years in an Inn of Chancery and was admitted afterwards and sworn an Attorney my self but being young gave my self too much Liberty And since my maturer years I have greatly neglected my Duty towards God I have profan'd his Sabbaths and broken the Covenants I made with the great God for amendment of Life and giving my self too much pleasure in offending my Creator I accidentally thô farally became acquainted with one Mrs. Godard alias Hannan near Three years since whose Conversation then suiting with my Fancy and being often told by her That she was at Liberty to make choice of a Man I made my Applications to her and in process of time at a meeting in Salisbury we were Contracted each to the other under our Hands which I intended Inviolably to observe But coming to London a few Months after being furnished by my Friends with what was needful in order to make a progress in my Employment I made my first Visit to her and continued with near two years to the best of my memory in which time we had often difference For I was troubled I had spent Mony and Time so idly and thereby disobliged my Friends our Contract not performed and another Man owning her Yet nevertheless I was so far Infatuared upon the Reasons she gave concerning this Matter that I had no very ill Opinion of her there often passing fresh and mutual assurance of our Friendship Yet nevertheless some few months since she coming acquainted with the Deceased Mr Charleton and as I have great Reason to believe they used too much Familiarity notwithstanding he had a Wife of his own Whereupon I several times desired him to desist but to no purpose and reflecting on the Time and Money I had trifled away with the Friendship and Kindness that yet remained for her with the several AFFRONTS I had received through the means of the DECEASEd I lay under GREAT CONFLICTS of MIND and he refusing all things that were Generous and having sent for her as she desired to a Publick House the fatal day the Deed was done the Deceased followed the Porter and told me she should not come which answer I did not take well of him considering he was a Married man and knew of the pretentions I had to her although I must confess I have been informed since my Imprisonment that another if not others have a better and prior Title to her than mine being both Married to her if so I heartily beg both their Pardons but I unhappyly going to her House soon after the Deceased had been with me at the aforesaid Alehouse the Deceased was unluckily there whereupon a difference arose and he unfortunately received a wound which I believe occasion'd his Death but nor as he was Sitting in his Chair as Reported now the said Mrs. Godard alias Hannam must be blameworthy in keeping another Womans Husbands Company and the more considering her Circumstances and I do hereby declare had she not done it I should in no wise have prejudiced the Deceased who had fair warning and in all probability we might have Lived both many Years to the comfort of all our Friends and where … 〈…〉 ●emory will be a great discomfort and very iro … 〈…〉 I must confess I had several Affronts but that can 〈◊〉 no excuse for Bloodshed I freely forgive them both and hope God has and will do so too And I beg forgiveness first of my Infinite Creator then of all the World and as some debts are due from me I am by these means made uncapable of giving satisfaction I desire nay I hope the Lord will give it Threefold where its due I declare I dye in Charity with all Mankind and I do humbly desire to be forgiven of all and let this my untimely end I beseech thee O Lord be a Warning to all Youth of what company they keep and if so it will in part answer the end designed G. Feild The Prayer O Most Glorious God thou that art Infinite and Incomprehensible thou that Revealest thy wrath from Heaven against all Vngodliness and Vnrighteousness of Men where then shall I appear being in so sad so miserable a condition Of whom may I seek for Succour but of thee O Lord who for my Sins art justly displeased wash me
