How was he executed?

[edit]

The article is not explicit on his method of execution. Was he beheaded, or was he hanged, drawn and quartered, both then legal punishments for high treason.Cloptonson (talk) 18:57, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have found the answer to my own question - hanged, drawn and quartered - in his article in the History of Parliament which I have cited.Cloptonson (talk) 11:07, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
