註釋
On the eve of the Revolution, a convicted burglar, Levi Ames, was executed at Gallows Bay in Boston, MA in October of 1773. Half of the population of Boston showed up to witness the spectacle of his death. One pastor, Samuel Stillman, was by his side all the way up to the gallows. Since before Ames' conversion in jail till rescuing his body after his death from Harvard doctors, Stillman ministered to the young Ames.This book is a collection of Stillman's eyewitness record of his execution, and two of the sermons he preached about the events. Attached is also an account of Stillman's ministry to Ames by Samuel Mather and the last speech of Levi Ames himself.
