Tuesday John Pill, convicted at Salisbury assizes of robbing Mr. Thomas Robins, of Malmesbury, on the high road between that town and Tetbury, was executed at Fisherton.—He was a remarkably tall powerful man; advantages which he had long abused, having committed robberies for a series of years past, and too frequently added to the crime by personal ill-treatment of the party robbed;—a circumstance which, on his latter conviction, precluded him from the expectation of mercy.
