Executed 1808 not 1807. SG 19
Jun 1808: Yesterday morning John McNeal, Alexander
Wilson alias Charles Boyle, and Mary Grady were
executed at Sydney; and tomorrow is fixed for the
execution of Felix Donnelly, Michael Bagan, and
Elizabeth Conner at Parramatta. At half past 11 the
three malefactors who have already expiated at
their offences, left the gaol [sic], the
two male prisoners walking closely behind a cart on
which the female delinquent was conveyed to the
place of execution: --on approaching which she
fainted several times, and as nearer she
approached, appeared more and more affected by the
horrors of her condition, of which she did not
appear thoroughly sensible until her death warrant
was read to her the day previous to the
execution.
The male suffers behaved in a
manner becoming their unhappy condition; Wilson was
rather of an advanced age; had served a former term
of 7 years transportation; and had in this colony
uniformily evinced a hardihood which could scarcely
have failed ultimately to bring him to an
ignominious end. - McNeal appeared to be about 30
years of age:-his offence was attended with
circumstances of arrocity that must have precluded
him from every hope of clemency His was a burglary,
by means of which he had effected a robbery upon
his master, of a valuable property over which he
was placed as safeguard. At the place of execution
he prayed aloud with much fervor, and met his fate
with a firmness and composure, which it is
earnestly to be hoped were the effect of true
christian resignation, and sincere
repentance.
