Sir John Johnston, 3rd baronet
The following is an extract from the Newgate Calendar:-
Sir John Johnston was born at Kirkcaldy, in Fifeshire. His father had had a good estate, but
had diminished it by extravagant living, so Sir John went young into the army to improve his
fortune. He went over to Ireland, where he thought to better his circumstances by marriage;
and getting into the acquaintance of a Mr Magrath, in the county of Clare, he, by his urbane
conversation, so gained his good opinion, that he frequently invited him to dinner. Mr Magrath
having a daughter, with ten thousand pounds as her portion, Sir John took every opportunity
to insinuate himself into her company, and so far gained upon her affections as to obtain her
consent to elope with him; but the father, having some hints given him of their private
courtship, kept a very watchful eye over their actions, and at last, being confirmed in his
suspicions, forbade Sir John his house, and kept his daughter close.
Miss Magrath being uneasy under her confinement, and deprived of the company of Sir John,
whom she loved to distraction, made a kinswoman her confidante, and entrusted her with a
letter to Sir John, to let him know how uneasy her life was, and that if he would come to
such a place, at a stated time, she would endeavour to make her escape, and meet him. But
the lady, thinking she should gain most by obliging her uncle, delivered the letter to him,
instead of Sir John. Mr Magrath, having read it, sealed it up again, and sent it to Sir John, who
received it with a great deal of satisfaction, and immediately wrote an answer, and returned it
by the same messenger. But, repairing to the place of rendezvous, instead of meeting the
lady, he fell into an ambuscade of fellows with sticks and clubs, who beat him so unmercifully
that he promised to relinquish his pursuit.
Having been in London some time, and spent his money, he was obliged to apply to some of
his countrymen for support; and Captain James Campbell, brother of the Earl of Argyll, having
a design to steal an heiress, one Miss Mary Wharton, he and Mr Montgomery were assistants
in the affair. Miss Wharton was the daughter of Philip Wharton, Esq., and at the age of 13, by
his death, inherited £1500 per annum, besides a personal property to the amount of £1000.
This young lady resided with her mother in Great Queen Street, and Captain James Campbell,
brother of the Earl of Argyll, wishing to possess so rich a prize, determined to marry her
perforce, and for that purpose prevailed upon Sir John Johnston and Archibald Montgomery
to assist him in conveying Miss Wharton from her home, which being done, and a reward of
£100 offered for the apprehension of Captain Campbell and £50 a-piece for him and Mr
Montgomery. Sir John, being betrayed by his landlord, was apprehended and indicted for it,
the 11th of December 1690.
The evidence was, in substance, that Miss Mary Wharton, being an heiress of considerable
fortune, and under the care of her guardian (Mr Bierly), was decoyed out on the 10th of
November, and being met with by Sir John Johnston, Captain Campbell and Mr Montgomery, in
Queen Street, was forced into a coach with six horses (appointed to wait there by Captain
Campbell) and carried to the coachman's house, and there married to Captain Campbell,
against the consent of herself, or knowledge of her guardian. The jury having found the
prisoner guilty, he received sentence of death.
The enterprise succeeded but too well to Johnston's cost. Campbell, who was the real culprit,
escaped punishment, and married Margaret Leslie, daughter of David Lord Newark, after
Parliament had dissolved his first marriage; but every effort to save Johnston proved
ineffectual. Miss Wharton afterwards married Colonel Bierly, who commanded a regiment of
horse in the service of William III.
At the place of execution, Sir John addressed the spectators in a long speech, in which he
not only endeavoured to make it appear he was blameless in the transaction for which he
suffered, but that he had been greatly wronged in printed papers, in which he was charged
with a rape at Chester, and a similar crime at Utrecht, in Holland. He was executed at Tyburn,
the 23rd of December 1690.
