Walworth was attended in court by his
mother, brother and sisters and number Of

Mr.. Beach, were present. Waiwor,h pre-
sented the demeanOr that characterized
him throughout the trial, ap-
prrently wholly insensible of the
position he occupies in the estimation Of
the great body of the people. He heard un-
moved the sentence to the State prison for
life, and at the close retired from the court

the motives which prompted the jury to
render the verdict which they did. He then
continued: 1.-The duty am to perform is
rendered doubly painful by the fact that you
belong to family hOnored and distinguished
both in the civil and military annals Of
your country. Your grandfather, on one
hand was, a. has been truly said by your
counsel, for long time Chief Equity Judge
of this great State, and be left record for
purity and integrity and for all the private
virtues that adOrn and elevate man second TO
none who have attained 10 high 4 station,
and your grandfather on your mothers side
fell nobly fighting for his country on the
field of battle, record Of which all his de-
scendants may we'll be proud. Ii is with
grief that l feel bound to express my
SORROW that the memory Of
these great ancestors should not
have restrained you from the commission
of such crime as that of which you are
convicted. Your poor mother indeed had
cause to regret her relations to the father you
have slain. You also undoubtedly had
cause to feel not only sgrieved merely, hut
and indignant at the long course o.
ontrages toward her and his family, but bad
as he was YOU were not to be The avenger Of
tho,e wrongs. He had done nothing to forfeit
his life even to the laws Of his
and least Of all had
he done anything wrong 10 forfeit
his life at the hands Of his own and eldest
SON.. When look back upon that moment
when you constituted yourself his execution
er and slew him in that room, with no one
present but yourselves, cannot but feel that
that death must have been to him more hOr
rible than q thousand deaths in any other
form. Called by you to your presence ap-
view TO settle family difficulties; invited to
seat in your room, and apparently almos,
confronted with q weapon of death
in his own sons hand; what thoughts mus,
have rushed on him at that moment, when he
found that the person whom he expected
had come TO BIN for the perpose Of a peace
fnl arrangement, had come to kill him.
What terrible thoughts must have rushed
upon him, when be received the leaden
of death in his bosom, from the
hands Of his eldest boy. shu'ider when
think Of it, and l think you ought to devote
your whole life to a repentance such AZ God
only will receive for 80 horrible deed.
