wears; and was very popular: Last
July his wife died very suddenly, and
was buried the next day. A few days
later Duncan went away, accompanied
bv a young woman named Georgia

This aroused suspicion, and the Coroner
had the body Of Mrs. Duncan exhumed;
An autopsy showed that she had died
strychnine poisoning. A warrant was
sworn out for Duncan, and he was
found in Florida, where he and Miss
Baldree were living as man and wife.
He was brought back, tried and con-
victed, and about two weeks ago nlade
a confession, duplicating Miss Baldree.
She was arrested, but released a few
days later.
The execution was public to-day be-
