“Christopher Love was beheaded for alleged conspiracy against the current Lord Protector of England, Oliver Cromwell. Love, Thomas Watson and William Jenkyn were among those imprisoned for treason. Cromwell charged them with conspiring to bring back the monarchy and the King after parliament had charged the king with treason and beheaded him. Watson was released, Jenkyn died in prison, and Christopher Love was beheaded. The following letter is one of many to Mr. Love’s wife. However, this is Mr. Love’s last letter to his wife on the day he suffered.”
