The town was thronged with visitors Il
day. and several companies of military were
in attendance. Stephens and Hazlet were hung
at noon. They appeared resigned to their
fate. Stephens died very hard, while Halle.
died without struggle. Both exhibited gre at
tirmness. There were no religious exer ises a.

fusing al the kindly Offices Of the ministers in
their last moments. They were both Spirit

with cheer ulness and resignation. Both bod
les have been forwarded to Marcus Spring.
