SIR: On my return home some days since,
found your very welcome letter, which brought
me some very interesting items in reference TO
my unfortunate and lamented son. BE assured.
sir, that your kindness both to him and myself
are highly appreciated. At the time your first
letter reached me, 1 was confined TO nv bed

Vile met the sad intelligence of his execution
ana returned home in sorrow, such as is not
common for human hearts to bearl
AS TO his early history, he was born in the
State OF Alabama, April 22d, 1874, I see by a
statement Of his that she was mistaken by one
year in his age.) In the twelfth year of his age
he made profession of religion, and from that
time he lived pious life up to the time Of his
enlistment He was soon ordered to Virginia.
From that time forward knew nothing of him
only by letter. He was always kind and ten
der hearted, yet determined in all his under
takings. He was much esteemed by all who
knew him, and bid fair for usefulness in
church and state. Please accept the warmest
thanks of myself and family for the services
rendered the unfortunate youth.
Very truly and sincerely yours,

Albert Starkweather. the wretch who re-
Gently murdered his mother and sister near
Hartford, and who rs now awaiting trial in the
Jail in that city, attempted to effect his escape
few nights ago. His plan, as revealed TO a
fellow convict, was to feign sickness, and then
TO call in the jailor, whom he was to kill with
a stick taken from the bedstead. Robbing the
dead man of his keys, he would then, under
cover OF the night, easily make his escape from
the Jail. His confident, however, informed the
Jalior OF the intended assassination, and Stark
weather was removed to more secure quar-.

confinement has been constantly planning an
