EXECUTION OF THE ESSEX
CRIMINALS.-(THIS DAY.)

CHELMSFORD, TIIESDAY.—This morning, in pur-
suance of their sentences, Thomas Drory and
Sarah Chesham, the wretched beings who were
convicted at the last assizes, expiated their
respective crimes on the scaffold of the County
Gaol at Springfield, near this town. As is customary on
similar melancholy occasions, the vicinity of the gaol
was crowded with thousands of persons of all classes,
whose morbid anxiety to witness the dreadful spectacle
not only brought them from the neighbouring localities
but from distant places by railroad.
Drory was calm and resigned to his fate, and appa-
rently attended with much fervour to the religious con-
solation of the chaplain (Rev. G. B. Hamilton) to the
last, notwithstanding, it is understood, that many
statements he had made, for the purpose of
palliating his crime, are totally devoid of
truth, still it is gratifying that he has not
withheld the only atonement he could make to societyr
by a thorough admission of the main facts of his guilt.
Mrs. Chesham has, it is believed, made some partial
Th
admissions, but to what extent is not yet known. u:
bodies, having been suspended the usual time, were c
down.

hose of her sex who, in the county of Essex more
especially, have been guilty of the frightful crime
of arsenical poisoning, for the purpose of obtaining
paltry allowances from burial clubs and other societies
set on foot for such purposes.
Drory's admission of his crime has been fully stated;
beyond that admission, he has added nothing, his friends
urging him not to make a written confession, a course
which he pursued to the last moment.
Thus both criminals died, one acknowledging the
crime for which he suffered, the other denying her guilt
of the crime for which she was compelled to forfeit
her life to the offended laws of her country.
D,

tiring the trial of the convict Drory his father, with
many others, had a strong conviction that his son was
innocent. He was present at the trial, seated among
the numerous friends of the prisoner, until the reply of
the counsel for the prosecution. In the course of that
speech he burst into tears and left the Court, stating
that, until that moment, he had believed the asseverations
made by his son that he was innocent, and that the girl
had committed suicide. The able and masterly reason-
ing of Mr. Edwin James upon the facts of the whole
case had convinced him, as it did all who heard it, that
the evidence for the prosecution was unanswerable. It
