What an great description of him
I don't know if that meant he was sentenced to death, other prisoners entries include transportation, x time in the penitentiary, and death recorded.
I can't find him on these sites,
http://www.britishexecutions.co.uk/http://www.capitalpunishmentuk.org/gloucester.htmlhttp://www.capitalpunishmentuk.org/gloucester.html but I found this,
http://www.bartleby.com/81/14129.htmlso maybe he died before his sentence was remitted?
