Pascal Mardel, a Roman Catholic priest and participant in the rebellion, was among the first seven of the fourteen selected for execution on 1 July 1796. They were publicly hanged at the Market Square, also known as the Parade; contemporary newspaper reporting described further violence to their bodies. Mardel’s case is documented through colonial court records and a newspaper account, both shaped by the authorities that staged the execution.
