meditatingly for awhile. At 7:45 the last
sacrsments were administered to him.
The march to the scafold was begun at
lO40. Herman was very calm, and walked
with firm step to his fate, his spiritual
advisors in the meantime uttering prayers
for the condemed. On arriving upon the
scafold the moose was adjusted, and at
lO:43 the Sheriff sprung the trap. Before
the trap was sprung Herman made few
remarks, denouncing Christ. Zeigler, whom
he accused of being intimate with his
wife. After hanging about fifteen minutes
Herman was pronounced dead, but the
body was allowed to hang thirteen minutes
longer when it was cut down.
At the time oi the murder Herman lived

the bedroom, threw her on the floor,
and cut her throat. She did not
struggle and was dead soon after. He
also said that he concealed the razor early
in the morning for the purpose Of killing
his wife, whom he suspected OF infdehty
with Ziegler, although there was no foun-
dation for it except that IieGler had given
the woman employment with which to sup
port herself while her husband was spree,

covery OF the crime, and meanwhile Her
man slept in bed with the corpse. Her
man was a native OF Prussia and ~ years
