OVENS.
An Hour with the Condemned Grim
inal.
What He Has to Say for Himself.
He is Cool, Collected and Very In
different.

In orderto secure from the unfortunate
negro Owens, now under sentence Of
death, a detailed or Satisfaetory explana-
ton Of the causes inducing the awful
crime for which he Is to be executed, we
visited him in his cell yesterday about 4
O'Clock, by permission of the jailor, MI.
Foster. He was at dinner, which he ap-
peared to relish. He looked up as we en-
tered and were announced, only for q mo-
ment; just long enough to realize our
presence, and then gave hurriedly to the
discussion of his food as unconcernedly
as If he had years instead of hours TO live.
We commenced by asking his age, to
which he responded:
Condcmned-I was 81 years old in May;
am in my SD year.
ReporteF-Where were you born, and
who did you belong to before the war;
Condemned-Was born in Logan coun-
ty, KY, and was the properly of Alex.
Owens, of hat county n State.
Reporter-When did you comet to Men,
phis3
Condemned-Came to Memphis In 1860.
Reporter-How do you feel-what is the
condition OF your healthT
petite is good. l am in better health than
| have been for ten years before, but don't
think I an Ion9Jor This DorLd.
Reporter-Are you particular as to your
appearance Tomorrow
Condemned-Yes. l want to be shaved
and fixed up TO look as nice as possible;
never liked to go among folks unless l
was fixed up. L am a very fair looking
man when 1 am fixed up right nice; don't
you think SOY
Reporter-Are you a member of any
church,
Condemned-Yes. Ihave protested re-
ligion. Was baptized yesterday by
Brother Williamson of the African Bailey
Church.
Reporter-Are you resigned and readyf
Condemned-I amt so much resigned.
But it don't make much difference about
being resigned; got to stand it, and there's
no use taking it hard.
Reporter-Were you a soldierG
Conference.-The; 1 was not in the war;
stayed here in Memphis, and about here
all the time.
Reporter-Can 1 do anything for your
Conference.-The; you can't do any
thing for me. A shave and a good wash
is all l want, and Mr.. Tucker will fix that.
Are you coming up tomorrow:
Reporter-I think not.
Condemned--Well, goodbye. I don't
expect to see you again.
The prisoner esumed his dinner, and,
refusing anything anything like Il confess
sion, We left him.
Owens will be executed from the same
gallows upon which Moody and Calvin
and Moody expiated their crimes; and at
about the same time Of the day. Every
.precaution will be taken by the Sheriff
and his deputies, and the Metropolitan
police will be out in force, to preserve the
utmost order and deeorum. We hope
those who may attend will conduct them
selves decently, and that no unseemly ex-
hibitions, such as characterized the last
execution, will be heard.

ing last night in the Municipal Court.
room, Gov. Harris in the chair. The

crate soldier. Several applications for re-
lief were received and were referred to
the Relief Committee for investigation
and relief if found worthy.
The Association seems anxious to re-
lieve only genuine Confederate soldiers,
their widows and orphans, for whese ben
eft the funds of tho Association have
been raised, and as trustees of the fund
they are guarding 1t with jealous care, de-
termined that the public shall see that the
money Ia properly expended.
A new Relief Committee was appointed
for the ensuing three meRths, composed
of Messrs. r. j. Black, Jas. J. Murphy
and Fred. Wolf, TO whom all petitions for
relief should he referred.
One hundred dollars was set aside to
buy books for the children of INDECENT
Confederate widows.
The Association was notified that ]. II.

has died since the last meeting, and the
Chair, upon motion, appointed u commit
tee consisting OF L. Il. Mcfarland, NJ,
