It is said the executioner hesitated, not fully willing to kill de Brito. Fr. Brito responded to the executioner, "My friend, I have prayed to God. On my part, I have done what I should do. Now do your part." The executioner obeyed, and St. John was slain. In a letter he wrote to his superior, Father Francisco Laynes, he stated that "When guilt is virtue, to suffer is its glory."
