hanged in the Tombs prison yard at 40
O'Clock Friday morning for the murder of
Mrs Maria Williams The condemned man
passed his last night on earth in very rest
less manner. The moment he was placed
upon the scaffoid his legs were tied, the
black cap drawn down, the moose adjusted
and the rope cut There was no delay, and
in less than five minutes after he had left
his cell Chacon was dangling in the air. As
the body rebounded from the cross piece
the hands and legs became rigid with mus
cular contraction In few minutes the
last outward sign of life was manifested in
the struggling OF the body. After hanging
about twenty minutes the body was cut
down.
The crime was committed on the night of
June 70, 1884. Chacon's victim was a col
cred woman named Maria Williams, whose
husband Munro Williams, had deserted
her. For ten months Chacon and Mrs
Williams had occupied rooms on the fourth
floor of double tenement and they were
regarded by their ueishbors as man and
wife One day Williams aud bis wife met
upon the street, and after a conversation,
they agreed to live together again On re-
turning home the woman notified Chacon
of her intention, and requested him to get
out He had purchased the furniture in
the rooms and supported the woman as well
as his wages as a trst-class cigar maker
would permit Everybody who knew
Chacon admitted thai he was devoted to
the woman and that he was almost heart
broken when he was turned adrift On the
night of the killing be went to the rooms &c
pack up his clothing AMI was confronted by
the husband. In the quarrel that ensued
Chacon attempted to shoot the husband,
but one of tho three bullets pierced the
heart Of the woman and she died instantly,
The husband escaped unframed. Chacou
fed, but was arrested on the following day
on the roof of a house on Spring street. He
was tried in the general sessions, convicted
of murder in the first degree on Nov 20
