The merchant then took slip OF
paper from his pocket and wrote:
"If the man who was seen to
take an umbrella from the vest1-
bule of the church last Sab
bath evening does not wish to get
into trouble and have stain cast
upon the Christian character which
he values so highly, he will return
1t to No. - San Fernando street.
He is well known"
This duly appeared in the paper,
and the following morning the
man was astonished when he
opened the front door of his resi-.
dence. On the porch lay at least
dozen umbrellas of all shades and
sizes, that had been thrown in from
the sidewalk, while the front yard
was literally paved with umbrellas:
Many of them had notes attached
to them saying they had been
taken by mistake, and begging the
loser to keep the little affair quiet.

He Dies With Firmness and Makes No
Confession.
CONCORD, July 10.-JosephiB. Buzzell, the
Ossipee murderer, spent his last night on earth
in the parlor of the deputy warden in the State
Prison. During the evening he spent most of
the time reading the Bible and book of
Moody's anecdotes. AT about midnight he I'M
dressed and went to bed. He soon became
restless however, and began conversing with
the chaplain on religious topics. This he kept
up at intervals until o'clock when he fell in
to browse which lasted until the prison bell
rang at 4.40 He then arose and dressed him
self carefully, appearing quite cheerful. AT 5
o'clock the warden took charge of him. At
$50 he drank a cup of coffee and partook of a
moderate meal. The chaplain then returned
and he and the condemned man prayed to-
gether.
When the hour of execution was near the
front door of the prison was opened and the
spectators having tickets were admitted. When
Sheriff Haley entered the sitting room Buz-
zell spoke to him pleasantly. When informed
that the hour of execution had arrived Buz-
zell signifed his readiness and thanked the
prison officials for their kindness. His arms
were then pinioned and he was asked if he
desired to have the death warrant read and he
said he did not. The Sheriff had been in
formed that this was not a necessary part of
this execution, and it was consequently omit
ted
At one minute past eleven Warden Pilsbury
appeared upon the scaffold and gave the usual
caution that there should be no confusion in
case OF anything happening out of the usual
course, and three minutes after Sheriff Haley
followed by the condemned, who was support
ed on each side by the deputies and accompan-
led by the chaplain, appeared in the guard
ROOM The procession moved briskly through
the guard-room and stepped Immediately upon
the scaffold. Buzzell walked firmly and
showed no outward sign of terror. He was
placed upon the drop facing the Sheriff. AS
he stood there it could be seen that his lips
moved constantly, and the spectators caught
the words-"The Lord be with me-" 'This is
hard-hard,' and ''this is not like Jesus" The
Sheriff said, "Joseph B. Buzzell, 1 now pro-
coed to execute the sentence of the law upon
you" and adjusting the rope about his neck
and placing the black cap over his head, he
said, MAY God have mercy upon your SOUL"
AS the Sheriff touched the drop Buzzell
swung to the length of the drop, as the trap
clasped back, and died without struggle.
DR.. Crosby, the state physician, gave aloud
the usual variation of pulse, and at the end of
10 minutes pronounced him dead.
The body was then drawn upon the scat
fold and it was found that the neck was
broken The remains were taken to the I'M
dertakers and will be sent to Brookfeld this af-
ternoon.
After the execution the Sheriff submitted
series of questions that he propounded to the
a confession. Buzzell in his answers denied
when asked if he procured the murder or knew
nothing that can be construed into confession
