In Great Expectations (1861), Pip, the main character of the story, claims that if Magwitch is caught (C) he will be tried and potentially hanged.

Abel Magwitch is an escaped convict that becomes Pip's friend. When Magwitch is arrested, Pip is conscious that Magwitch's fortune will go to the crown after his trial and he wishes the convict to die before he is hanged at the gallows in order for him not to die as an ordinary criminal. He even visits Magwitch, holds his hand throughout his trial, where he is condemned to death, and stands by his side when he dies before being hanged, fulfilling Pip's wish.
