THE EXECUTED MAN

protested his innocence from the first when
suspicion pointed to him as her probable
destroyer Even on the gallows with the
fatal moose adjusted about his neck and
knowing that no power on earth could
return him from an ignominious and fear
full death by strangulation he uttered his
last words and claimed that he was limo
cent of the crime for which he was to suf
fer. At that time he predicted, that, after
his death, the murderer of the woman
would be found out and his innocence
thereby established.
During the earlier stages of his impris-
onment he stated that he knew not who
the real murderer was, although after his
trial, when the members of his family sub
mitteG such damaging evidence against
him, he concluded that there was con
spiracy among his children to get rid of
him and shield some other party. He
reasoned that the only person who could
exert such influence over them was his
own son Otto, the husband of the muir
dered woman, and therefore concluded that
Otto was the guilty party. He still main
tanned that he knew nothing of his own
knowledge, but based his opinion on what
Otto had told him of his desire to rid him
self of Dora and the known unhappy rela-
tions that existed between the pair on ac-
count of Dora's unfaithfulness TO her hus
band.

The recent trial, conviction and execu-

affair. The evidence was wholly circum-

was of that character which admitted OF
another solution. With the deceased as
the murderer, no reasonable motive was
elected from the witnesses or shown by the
prosecution why the deed should have been
committed On the other hand every
reasonable explanation of the crime would
tend TO show that the victim was killed
for some purpose. Jealousy, hatred OF
fear of destruction for lesser crime must
have prompted the slayer to strike the fatal
blow which caused the spirit of Dora He'll
