The Last SPEECH AND CONFESSION OF Charles Obrian AND Daniel carry. Who were both Executed at TYBURN, ON Friday being the Seventh day of September 1688. Charles Obrian for Felony and Burglary, and Daniel carry for wilful murder, &c. THis day Charles Obryan a Scotchman of about twenty three years of Age, and Daniel carry a Soldier belonging to the Tower of London; were both drawn in a Cart from Newgate to Tyburn in order to be executed there. Obryan dyed for breaking the House of one Edward Weekes near Mussel-hill in the County of Middlesex, on the Third of August last, there being several others in his company, some of which are not as yet taken. Daniel carry was brought to die, for killing one Edward wielding, on the Seventeenth day of July last at Tower-hill. Both whose trials are to be seen at large in the Book of trials, &c. When the Cart was under the three, Mr. Ordinary and two other Ministers came into the Cart: Mr. Ordinary began to pray for and with Mr. Obrian, likewise did the other two Ministers take great pains in admonishing of him to prepare for his latter end, which they did by Prayer and other serious and seasonable Instructions, &c He seemed very Penitent at first, and much lamented his untimely end, desiring all Young men to beware of the Devils Temptations, and of the Company of evil Men, who had brought him to this evil end; desiring all People present to pray for his Soul. Saying, Good People, I have been a very wicked Sinner all my days, and am brought here to die for the same. I have been guilty of all manner of sins except Murder, which I did commit once in my own defence, being set upon be one who drew a Sword upon me, or else I ever hated it. But I must confess further, that I have taken great delight on Horse-back, and to Rob upon the High-ways, which is the chief Crime for which I die; but now I hate it as much as any thing in the World. I desire you all to pray for me, and let all young People take warning by me, here is abundance of young Persons present here, I wish they would take Example by my Evil End. After this he desired the Ordinary to sing a Psalm, and to pray again for him, the other two Ministers having taken their leaves of him. He was much concerned at his death, and seemed to be full of Agony and Fear; yet said that his fear did not proceed from cowardice, but from the trouble that was upon him, for what wrong he had done to others. These and other such like lamenting Expressions came from him in the Cart, saying at last he was willing to die, and leave the World, trusting his Soul only upon the Merits of Jesus Christ, who died and shed his precious Blood for him, he said Amen to all the Prayers of the Ordinary and the other two Worthy Ministers, who came to administer their Spiritual help to him, desiring them to pray for him to the last. After which he recommended his Soul to the Mercy of Almighty God. As for the other Criminal carry, he died in the Roman catholic Faith, and would have no help from the Protestant Ministers, all the help he had, was by tow Priests that came into the Cart, &c. So can say nothing in particular to him, only leave him to the Mercy and Pitty of God, who pardoneth all true Penitents. Let all that red this Paper take warning hereby, to beware of their own hearts Lusts, and evil and wicked Inclinations to sin, especially of being seduced by such evil Company as these poor Creatures have been, particularly Obrian, who hath been a Notorious Offender ever since his Childhood, as himself confessed, therefore desired that all would take warning, and learn by his sudden death to amend their Lives. And let every good Christian bemoan the untimely end of such Ignorant Creatures; let it be a daily warning to all Persons that led evil Lives and Conversations, not according to Truth and Honesty. One thing I think not fit to omit, concerning Mr. Obrian, he espying a Person near him, supposed to be the Person of the House where the Dead Body was laid, after he was killed at Mussle-hill. Saying to him, Sir, I do not know your name, but we may thank your Wife for finding us the Arms to Rob on the High-way. Yet for all this he would not speak one word against any of his Companions, whereby to peach them, but died at last pretty confidently, and with a kind of an undaunted Spirit, saying, What good will it do me to bring any other Person to an untimely death in this place, &c. carry said nothing more, but desired all Persons to take warning by him, denying that he knew any thing of the death of wielding, only said that there were several Swords clattering in the Scuffle besides his, when the Person was killedâ–ª so could not be positive that his Sword killed him, &c. Let us all desire Almighty God to keep us in the way of Truth and Honesty, and that we may live in the fear of God all the days of our Lives, and then our Deaths may and will be comfortable to us all in God Almighty's due time. One John Pressley was likewise ordered to be executed for the murder of one John page., but a Reprieze being sent after him, he was returned back again to Newgate, &c. With Allowance.
