the hanpman. Where he came from,
who he was, why be had chosen his

knew. Legend had it that he was a
convict, who had been pardoned on the
condition that he would adopt the 9xe,

that he had embraced 1t through GER.

trunk being placed under sack and
concealed behind some tiagstones near
the Pineapple toll bar, in Edgeware
Road. He confessed that Hannah Brown
had deceived him by pretendiDgte have
some property, and that one night she
called Ut his lodgings and laughed az her
trick. In rage he struck her with a
silk roller, and, the blow proving mortal
he formed the resolution of cutting up
and concealing the body. No criminal
case since the trial of DIR. Dodd had
stirred 80 much excitement IN London
On the night of Greenacre's execution
hundreds of persons slept on the steps OF
