scaffold to haunt you day and night

you on the brink of hell with a redhot
IRON"
These are the farewell words Of Harry
Hayward to his brother Adry this after
noon. He hurled them at the latter as
he descended the stairs leading to the
tier in which the prisoner was confined,
and passed through the iron doorway
leading to the outer office. 1t was their
last meeting on earth, and such the
murderer intended it to be. Adry was
as calm as the prisoner was impassion-
ed. He was unmoVed by the anathemas
except toward pity. His was the broth
erly affection, and it was his fervent
God bless you, Harry. Goodbye,
Harry" which elected the remarks
quoted above.
The meeting between the brothers
was arranged by the parents, who be-
seeched the condemned man to see Adry
once more before he died. He remained
obstinate to their entreaties for long
time, but finally he consented and sent
by messenger a note reading:
Dear Adry: I want you to come at
once to the Jail, as / wish particularly
to see you. l have no other object than
the desire to ask your forgiveness for
any wrong, either real or imaginery,
which I may have done you. 1 want
once more to see you on this earth.
This is the wish and dying request of
your brother. HARRY.
When Adry reached the Jail he wait
ed until the conclusion of n visit of
DR.. Hayward, who was then with the
doomed man.
Deputy Allison, however, passed
through the office to the Jail corridor
and told Harry that Adry was in the
outer office.
Let him come up at once" said
Harry. DR.. Hayward, however, did not
relish the idea of the meeting between
the brothers in his presence, and asked
the deputy to wait until he was ready
to go before he showed Adry up the jail
stairs. He remained a few minutes
longer, then bade his brother farewell
for the time being. On his way out, he
met Adry in the doorway and the two
stopped for a brief time and shook
hands. The doctor passed out of doors,
while Adry assembled the stairs to the
corridor, where Harry stood calmly
awaiting him. They addressed each
other in a friendly manner after which
Harry requested the deputies to with
draw a distance to allow him to speak
to his brother confidentially. The Of
ficials did as requested. What passed
between the two brothers was not heard
by any person until Harry raised his
voice to say: "NoW, / have done my
part. have forgiven you all you have
done. Now, you do as 1 ask"
'But, Harry. how can II" replied
Adry quietly.
The answer was too much for the
prisoner and he sprang to his feet and
poured forth a TRADE Of abuse never
before heard in the old Jail
You low down, mean, contemplate,
miserable, damnable wretch, you refuse
to do that, after what I have done, you
God-forsaken tool, you have played a
good part, but now 1 can tel! you what
1 think of you. My letter TO you was af-
ter all only a decoy for that purpose.
You damned villain. If / could only
get at you, I'd dig out your brains with
a knife. / would tear out your heart
with my hands. I would crush the two
together, cut them into pieces, squeeze
out the juice, make it into a pie and
thrust it down your throat"
He clenched his hands in his rage.
and stamped his foot fiercely. His face
was ashen and livid by turns.
Adry sat quiet for few minutes, but
seeing the uselessness of waiting long
er, arose and started to go.
God bless you, goodbye Harry" he
called sadly as he was about to go down
the stairs.
