The constable across the street heard
the shouts, hurried over to the house of
the physician, and took the despairing
Bixton into custody.
At the station mouse he Immediately
made clean breast Of the whole trans
action, whereupon DR.. Melville was like
wise arrested.
The physician had regained his pres
ence Of mind, and denied Bixton's char
ges against him with the utmost GOODNESS.
But his denia!s were unavailing in the
face Of acknowledgements v-
idence confirming Bixton's statements
against him. Inditments for murder in
the first degree were found against them
at the next term of the Circuit Court.
When the trial came off an able defense
was made IN behalf of DR.. Melville,
whose counsel strenuously tried to prove
that Bixton had insiJiously robbed the
Doctor, and STOLEN the articles found
with him with the intention Of saddling
the guilt on Melville's shoulders in case
he should be detected in his CRIME.
Notwithstanding the able speeches OF
the defendants lawyer, the two prisoners
were found guilty, and hung in the pres
ence Of an immense concourse OF people
on the 21st of January, 1882.

after him and locked it. Soon the sharp

was found upon the floor, weltering in

bed and bent over the muzzle of the gun,
the butt of which he rested on the floor.
Placing the muzzle just behind the right

Patrick Cofee,s Storm.

Under my sentence entered the peniten-
tiary June -, 1878. At that time Mr.. Jack
man was warden and Major Evans deputy
warden. At first I was put to work as a
common laborer, but in the course Of six or
eight weeks, probably owing to the fact that
I did my work cheerfully and we'll, was
transferred to the house, where I came under
the more immediate control of Major Evans
Il should be stated that the house duties are
the lightest, and in all respects
preferable to any other about the prison, and
such positions are therefore eagerly sought
after by the conYicts. Here [ received what
might be called fair treatment, much better
than had expected, and was getting along
ewirnningly, and was tolerably well satisfied
with my lot, until change was made in the
prison management by the removal OF jack
man and Evans, the former being succeeded
by Capt. J. A. Reed, and the latter by w.
W. Williams. This change was made in
August, 1874, think, and with it my trouble
commenced. I was still employed in the
house, but without any cause on my part,
SO far as l know, regular system of perse-
cution was commenced upon me. At the
4 same time Reed reduced the quantity of food
