THis day Charles Obryan a Scotchman of about twenty three years of Age , and Daniel Cary 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 Cary was brought to dye , for killing one Edward Welding , on the Seventeenth day of July last at Tower-hill . Both whose Tryals are to be seen at large in the Book of Tryals , &c.

When the Cart was under the Tree , 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 dye 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 dye ; but now I hate it as much as any thing in the World . I disire 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 Cowardise , 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 dye , and leave the World , trusting his Soul only upon the Merits of Jesus Christ , who died and shed his pretious 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 Cary , he died in the Roman Catholick 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 read 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 lead 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.

Cary said nothing more , but desired all Persons to take warning by him , denying that he knew any thing of the death of Welding , only said that there were several Swords clattering in the Scuffle besides his , when the Person was killed ▪ 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 Murther of one John Page , but a Reprieze being sent after him , he was returned back again to Newgate , &c.
