which he repeatedly kissed forvently. Arriving
at tho scaffod, he knelt betwoon the c1ergyulo1l.
aud repeated the Lords Prayer mud oroed OF tho
Catholic Church. The ropo was thon adjusted,
and, without delay, Nixon was launched into eter-
nifty. He died apparently easy. Owing to tile
disgraceful scenes at tho hanging Of Foster. Gov.
Dix suggested that tho law could bo yindicatod
u tho caas Of Nixon without gratifying the NOR
ing these suggestions, tho 1omba prison was
crowded with holders Of tiokota Of admission to
the execution, issued from the shoriff's oflco.
Tho examination mndo by tho doctors showed
that tho neck had not been broken, and that
death had resulted from ntrangulation. One of
the physicians stated that the nufrerings Of tho
unfortunate man must have been extreme.

at fourteen minutes phat 0 tue body was
lowered and examined by tho medical men In at-
tendance. The pulse at tho wrist WIS not por-
coptible, but tile heart still continued to boat.
At seventeen ninutoB past 0 the doctoru pro-
nouncod life extinct, and ut thirty-four minutes
past tue body waB cut down and lowered into q
plain deal coffin. When tho black cap WAS re-
moved the face Of the dead presented ghnBtly
appearance. The lower law hal dropped, leaY-
ing tho mouth wide open, with the tongue pro-
trudlng. Tho eyes, also were wide open, aud
hxel In a stare of horror. :, -
Tho extraordinary nervo displayed by Nixon
WAS tho source Of general aBtonishment and
comment. At the inquest and trial lo showed
great nervousness, weeping frequently, and
