AUGUST,

TRIAL of JOHN BARBOT, at St.
Christopher's, in the Weft-Indies, for the
Murder of MATT. MILLS, Efq;

A

PS the trial, condemnation, and execution of John Barbot, attorney at law, for the murder A of Matthew Mills, Efq; in the island of St. Chriftopher's, has of late been a fubject of converfation, and contains fome very extraordinary circumftances, we shall give our readers a fhort account of it, beginning with as exact an hiftory of the perfons chiefly concerned as we can collect.

B

Matthew Mills, Efq; was a rich planter
of the island of St. Chriftopher's, a gen-
tleman of a general good character, and
highly esteemed in that ifland; and he
was, it seems, a confiderable creditor up-
on the estate of Dr. James Webbe, who
had always been a great friend to Mr.
Barbot, and whofe eftate in the island of C
Nevis, was by order of court to be fold
at a publick fale, for the fatisfaction of
his creditors; at which fale both Mr.
Mills and Mr. Barbot were present and
nearly concerned, the former to push on
the fale, in order to recover what was due
to him, and the latter to prevent its taking
effect, or to become the purchaser in trust
for his friend Dr. Webbe, who had very
ill will to have his eftate fold to a stranger,
because he had a rich uncle upon the
ifand, on whom he hoped to prevail
to pay his debts and preferve the eftate,
Which he has fince done.

John Barbot was born in London, and
was the fon of an eminent and fubftantial
filversmith, who, it feems, is ftill alive.
At 14 he was bound apprentice to an at-
torney at London for five years, and after
having ferved his time, he went to Antigua
in 1746, as clerk to a gentleman of the law
there. About three or four years ago,
be got himself admitted as an attorney at
August, 1753

1753.

St. Chriftopher's, and fell very foon into confiderable practice there; fo that before this unlucky affair happened, he had got about 8ool, before-hand; and as he had always been employed by Dr. Webbe and his family, he was prevailed on by the doctor to fet up as the purchaser of his eftate at the fale, which he was enbled to do, by a gentleman's undertaking to endorse his bills for the third part of the price, as that part of the price was to be immediately depofited in good bills of exchange, by the conditions of fale; and as Mr. Mills and he had oppofite interefts to purfue at the fale, this brought on the quarrel between them.

What fort of perfon of a man, or what age, Mr. Mills was, we have not heard; but Mr. Barbot is faid to have been a man of a small fize, but fprightly, and about, or not much above 25 years of age, when this affair happened.

He was tried at St. Christopher's, Jan. 5, 1753, and charged with having feloniously and of malice forethought murdered Matthew Mills, Efq; at Frigate bay in that ifland, on Sunday, November 19, about 5 o'clock in the morning, by giving him with a piftol loaded with powder and leaden bullets, one mortal wound, upon the right fide, between the two laft falfe ribs, and pear the back; and the witnesses were as follows:

Peter Carew fwore, that at the fale of Bridgwater's (Dr. Webbe's) eftate, Nov. 7, he heard the prifoner fay to the deceased, be expected to be treated like a gentleman, or, be did not treat him like a gentleman.

Thomas Mills.-That at the faid fale, upon the prifoner's objecting to the con ditions of fale, the deceafed faid, Mr. Barbot, the conditions of fale are very fair why will you cavil about them? Upon which the prifoner faid, Sir, I expect to be treated like a gentleman. And the deceafed replied, Sir, I fhall always treat you and all mankind as fuch. And he gives good reasons for believing, that after the fale the deceased
