HIS Cheeks-Strango Accidental Death
ofa Boy at the Hands OF an Atlanta
Plumber
BUTLER, GA, Sept. l7.-Rev. Jesse
COOK, the negro wife murderer, was es-
oorted from Jail to the gallows, one. half n
mile from the court house, by a guard 140
strong, to-day. When on the scatfold he
gave out hymn, but did not sing. Rev.
j. j. Farmer offered prayer. after which
Cook made few remarks stating that he
was glad to see so many of his friends
there. He seemed perfectly reconciled.
and bore the ordeal courageously until a
few minutes before the trigger was
sprung, when he cried and wrung his
hands. Jack Shinholaster sprung the
trigger at 1925 O'Clock p. m. Cook fell
and died from strangulation. Doctors
say his neck was not broken. After
hanging twenty-five minutes Drs. Walk
er, Turner, JemisOn and Edwards pro-
nounced Cook dead. The rope was three
inches in circumference. The iall was
seven feet. The crowd was estimated at
about 5000. The remains were put in a
coffin and sent to Box Springs, at the re-
quest of the family, for interment.
COOKS CRIME.
In the fall of 1885 Cook became enraged
at his wife for refusing to follow him to
Alabama and threw an ak at ber, striking
her in the small of the back. She fell
helpless and beseeched him to spare her
life. He placed his foot upon her throat,
and taking the ak dealt her three success
sive blows on the head, killing her in
6tAnflV no nd
picked up by neIghbors her brains bad
ooZed out and her head was perfect
Jelly. Cook made his escape. A
posse OF armed men followed
him, but be was not arrested until a few
months ago. Conductor Smith, of the
Central railroad, recognized him in Sell
ma, Ala, and arrested and brought him
to Butler, where he remained until his
trial. He was found guilty of murder
and sentenced to be hanged. He ap-
pealed to the Supreme Court, hut the
judgment of the lower court was affirmed.
At the last term OF court, in August,
Judge Carswell resentenced him to be
hanged today.
COOKS LIFE IN JAIL.
The gaIlows was constructed about
half mile from the court house, in a val
ley, giving the people full view. When
his coffin was being dressed at Holman's
shop, only few feet from the Jail, Jesse
saw it and asked who was dead. Upon
beng told that 1t was for himself he
seemed dazed. He looked on the coffin In
deep study, but recovered in a few min
utes and put on a careless look, for
which he was noted. 1t Is said that this,
however, IS the only thing that made him
serious since his arrest.
Quite a number of negroes visited him
at tne Jail yesterday. He talked freely.
told them that he was going to heaven
and not to grieve after DIM. He said that
he would be at the doors Of each one OF
their houses the night after the hanging,
This alarmed the negroes who had come
to listen, and they dispersed amid great
confusion.
