John Kid
John Kid (d. August 14, 1679) was a Scottish preacher who refused to follow the episcopal church of the King of England; he continued to preach as a Covenantor and was executed for treason in 1679.
He was seized by Claverhouse among the insurgents after the Battle of Drumclog. He was released by the insurgents but was recaptured three weeks later at the Battle of Bothwell Bridge with a sword in his belt. Kid was taken to Edinburgh along with another preacher named John King. They were each subjected to torture, condemned to death, and executed for treason. Following his death Kid's head and limbs were displayed at the Netherbow Port on Edinburgh's Royal Mile; these were placed beside the skull of James Guthrie, another Covenanter who had been executed for treason 18 years earlier.
