move the hearts of these cruel murtherers to spare the youths life but they bound him hand and foot and ty'd a great weight to him and threw him into the Sea and then came to serve the other poor man the like that was left alive but by the great providence of God his life was spared to the end that their blood might be brought upon their heads having committed these murders the ship at length put in at Kingsayl in Ireland where P. F. began to sell the goods almost for nothing keeping the Dutch man under Deck but making great waste he began to be suspected upon which he fled with his ship to Watterford but a Captain of that Port persued the ship and took her and five of his company but he made an escape the Vessel was brought to Kingsayl and the men being brought before a Justice and the Dutchman declaring against them they were sent to Cork to Prison where they remained till the Assize at which they were found guilty and were sentenced to be hang'd drawn and quartered which upon the fifth day of August was performed on them The first that suffered was P. F. who being upon the Ladder cryed out to all spectators to take example by him there being ten Irish men hanging upon the Gallows at that time F. desired all young-men to have a care and to be contented with that estate that God should think best for them in and not to presume too high as he had done crying out over and over I am a bloody rogue I am a bloody rogue O that I who am not nineteen years of age should dye so bloody a rogue as I am So having said his Paternoster and taking his leave of the Priest telling all persons that the two English men were not in the least guilty of blood he was turned off and the next was M. who made a large confession much after the same manner of F. crying out of the blood he had shed and after him was F-G who made a large naration in English French Irish and Dutch all of them clearing the English men from this Murder Next came I.C. who made a large and eloquent speech to the people begging that they would all flee from sin which was the cause of his ruine and that all Seaman would take heed what company they come into for fear they should be brought into such a snare and to such an end as he was brought to he declared that he never wronged man woman or child but he confessed he had highly dishonoured God in keeping company with Lewd Harlots which he said was the cause that the Lord God had given him over to be deluded with those false speeches of that wicked P. F. who told him that he was an Irish Lord and that he would highly prefer both him and I. F. as soon as they came to Ireland he was asked whether he was willing to dye he said he was and he declared to the people that he was sure that the Lord had pardoned his sins and would receive him to glory so taking his leave of those Ministers that had spent much time with both of them in prayer both at the place of execution and for some hours with them before they came to the place of execution and also of the people he gave himself up to prayer for a long time using many arguments to the Lord for pardon of his sins being accompani'd with all spectators he at length with abundance of humility committed his soul to the mercy of God and his body to the Executioner being turned off I. F. fell immediately upon the ground on his Knees pouring out his spirit to the Lord by prayer for a long time at length he went up the Ladder and looking round about him he cryed out to all spectators to take example by him especially to young-men that they should take example by him and not to spend their precious time in sinning against the Lord least his anger should break forth against them and bring them to such a shameful end as he was come to he begged of all Seamen and others to have a great care of what company they came into least it should provoke the Lord to deliver them up to such wicked delusions as he was delivered up to Oh the wicked F. cryed he Oh this bloody F. that would have pitty of none in sparing of them although I begged of him so to do as though I had begged for my own life as I did for half an hour together upon my knees O this cruel Murderer P. F. And giving many Exhortations to the people he turn'd him about and look'd on his poor companion I. C. after that he prayed again very excellently and with a chearful voice bad the Executioner to do his office so taking his leave of all he humbly committed his soul to the mercy of the Lord Where in the judgement of charity we hope it now resteth after he was dead and quarter'd he was coffin'd and the next day buried with a great compaay of Seaman and other persons of quality there being a Funeral Sermon preached at his burial and much mourning was given at his burial A large burial was made by the Seamen and others for I. C. They dyed both in white from the crown of the head to the sole of the foot declaring their innocency of Murder when the ten Malefactors that dyed that day were executed then these were brought from the Merchants own house who walked on foot with Bibles in their hand all in white the other three with Mass books in their hands ill five indeed for flesh and blood were as brave men as are seen in a whole Countrey four of them not exceeding 23 years of age I.C. as he said was above thirty After they were all dead and quartered the heads of the Irish men were set upon several Gates in several Sea-port places in Ireland as an example to all Traytors and murderers to take warning by Finis
