THE
Life and Prophesies
OF
That Faithful Minister of God's Word,
Mr. Donald Cargill,
Sometime Minister in the Barony Parish of Glasgow, who suffered Martyrdom for the Lord’s Cause, with four others, at the Cross of Edinburgh, the 27th July 1681, and had their heads put upon the posts.
Being singular for Piety, Zeal and Faithfulness; but especially for his foretelling future Events that were to befal Scotland in general, and private families in particular.
Such as his foretelling,
The untimely and fearful Deaths of those cruel Persecutors, whom he had excommunicated at the Torwood. Likewise an account of his Indictment, Trial, Sentence, and Behaviour at the place of Execution, with his last Words upon the Scaffold before he suffered.
In this you have also a particular Account of the great Scarcity and Dearth which took place; when many died from Want and bad Provisions, and when the Meal was as high as Two Shillings and Six pence the Peck.
To which is added,
A Part of the Life and untimely Death of Argyle, who gave his casting Vote against Mr. Cargill.
BY PETER WALKER,
Who was Himself a Sufferer in those Days.
