LOVE.

A voice ofpity strove to bless
In accents bonntfuly kind,
But still my grief knew no redress,
Grown mad and blind
The pretence made herself my slave,
Hither and thither came and went;
All that she had poor kindness gave,
Till all was spent.
She tried to soothe and make me whole;
Her touch was torment In my pain;
II froze my heart, benumbed my soul,
And crazed my brain.
At last, her duty all fulfilled,
She turned with cheerful ease away,
Yet would have fingered. had wllled
That she should stay
And lei there knealt, where she had stood,
One, wistful as child might be.
Who blushed at her own hardihood
In helping me.
She said no word, she only turned
Her passionate sweet eyes on nine,
Until within my sorrow burned
A bliss divine.
And in that gaze woke once more
To earth beneath and heaven above
This was not kindness as before,
But only Love.

owning a revolver but it was proved
b. the Oxford Iron Company's books
that he had bought ono some months
before Blood WAS found ON his
clothes and shoes and also on the
handle Of his revolver but counsel
for the defense tried to show that
this was the result Of natural causes.
This evidence Eas very damaging TO
the prisoner. Bolak was tried and
convicted at the April term Of court
snd sentenced to be hung by Chief
Justice Reasley, who manifested
much emotion when passing the
! death sentence. Bolak Is the first
person hanged whom the Chief Jus
tice sentenced to death. He has sen

comnuted except Bolak He passed
the death sentence on Janitcr Titus
but Titus went to States Prison foI

trial and has since been devoted t.
her husband. The prisoner for the

fate He was a man OF iron nerve

EXecutioner Van Hise, who hai
hanged 80 persons including Bolak
superintended the execution. HI
furnished the sc;rffold, the black cap

ticles and got $50 dollars for his
services. The hanging took place IL
the yard adjoining the jail on the
east. The prisoner was taken out
