anything, replied, II only want to say
that sheriff Wood and his brother are
very cruel men and murder men for
wages" The trap was then sprung,
his neck was broken, q few convulslye
twitches, and all was over. This
shocking spectacle was witnessed by
about thirty-tive invited guests.
Although several times he was ex-
ahmed as to his sanity and each time
found sane by the jury, Drs. Taylor
and Phipps desired to examine the
brain, which they removed and care
fully examined and, according to the
Custer Chronicle, made this report:
