William Kcene was executed recently at
Jacksonville, Florida, for the murder of
Valentine in November last Kcenc first

the first of October, 1873 He was quite
youthful, being sout IS years of aye, and
prcpossessing IN appearance and manner
y few days after his arrival he was joined
by Valentine. a person much older than
Keenc, They appeared to be warm friends.
About the first of November Valentine
started up the st. Johns river on hunt,
and was followed by Kccne, who returned
few days after, bringing Valentines
Loaf, gun and watch. The correspondent
Of the Nay York SIM. "Ziska, has told in
lis graphic Way how Valentines body was
found near Black Point, With evidences
that he had been toully murdered. The
brain was pierced with shot, the throat
gashed and the legs weighted. At
the coroner's inquest Eeene adj
mjiLed ip q careless way that the
! body was that of Valentine, and after
ward confessed that he had committed the
crime, adding that it was done in self de
fence His story was that he quarreled
with Valentine about Il loan Of money.
! Valentine stopped to raise revolver, and
he fired on and killed him. He denied hay
ing cut the victm's throat and attributes the
cuts to the fishes. The theory Of defence
was upset by the fact that Valentine had
been shot in the back Of the head, and
this, together with Keenes cCnccalment OF
the crime, and his haste to get possession of
the dead mans property, sufficiently proved
his guilt lie was speedily brought tc
trial. His air of cool leyity in the prison
er's box made an untavorable impression
The proof was clear and he was sentenced
to be hanged on the eth ult. His counsel
made motion for new trial, but with
drew the motion, and the death warrant
was signed,
After his sentence Keenc began TO rehec
on his condition He was received into tn,
Methodist Episcopal church, and wrote
verses devoid of literary merit, hut show
ing that he realized his approaching end.
AT half-past ten in the morning he wa
