Execution of Wirs-He Declares his limo
eessce on the GaIi0scs.
tSH.f . WASHINGTON, Nov. TO- i
This morning father Boyle administered the
sacrament to Capt Wirz, and Father Wigget
then placed upon the prisoner the black camp
brio robe, and remarked. hope this will be
turned into white one in the other world."-.
At twenty minutes past ten Capt. Wirz came
from his cell in the Old Capitol Prison, accom-
panied by Provost Marshal Russell and other
officers, and by Fathers Boyle and Wigget, and
passing between the military guard they as
cended the scaffoid. The prisoner was then
seated. The guard consisted of the 195th
Pennsylvania Volunteers, and three detach-
ments Of the Veteran Reserve Corps, under
Capt. Walbridge, the Military Superintendent
of the Old Capitol Prison. There were sever
al hundred spectators besides the military.
Amid profound silence Provost Marshal
Russell proceeded to- read the order of the War
Department, founded on the verdict of the
!. Court Martial which tried the prisoner. The
following is the Presidents order:
lg EXECUTIVE MANSION, Nov 8, 1865.
The proceedings, finding and sentence of
the Court, in the Wirz case, are approved, and
it is ordered that the sentence be carried into
execution by the officer commanding the De-
partment of Washington, Friday, the 10th
day of November, 1865, between the hours of
SIX IN the morning ana Twelve Ut noon.
(Signed) ANDREW JOHNSON, Il,
80 President of the United States.
After the reading of the order Wirz con-
versed with those on the platform with SEEM
ing calmness and self-possession, and it was
remarked that he had smiling countenance.
To his spiritual advisers he said, I am inno-
cent. have to die, but can die like man.
have hope in the future. have nothing
more to sayp Hklegs and hands were tied,
the moose passed around the neck, and the
black cap drawn over the face. He stood
erect without faltering, evidently having nerv-
ed himself for the solemn event. Those on
the platform retired to the railing, leaving the
/ doomed man in the centre of the structure
After a. few moments of profound quiet, the
+ drop, at preconcerted signal, fell. The sound
thus occasioned having reached the ears of a
promiscuous crowd outside the capitol ground,
was responded to by repeated shouts Of appro-
baton. Mont -
The convict directly after falling was consid-
erablyr convulsed in the legs, but the agony
was soon over. He hung about fifteen min
utes, and was then cut down, the body laid
upon stretched aud conveyed to the prison,
where it was placed in coffin and transferred
to Father, Boyle for interment His neck was
broken by the fall. The proceedings occupied
about three fourths of an hour. ~ e.
