_Capital Punishments_ (Vol. vii., pp. 52. 321.).--The authorities to which
W. L. N. refers not being generally accessible, he would confer a very
great obligation by giving the names and dates of execution of any of the
individuals alluded to by him, who have undergone capital punishment in
this country for exercising the Roman Catholic religion. Herein, it is
almost needless to remark, I exclude such cases as those of Babington,
Ballard, Parsons, Garnett, Campion, Oldcorne, and others, their fellows,
who suffered, as every reader of history knows, for treasonable practices
against the civil and christian policy and government of the realm.
