A RELIC.
The Old County Gallows is Now in tho
Sutter Fort Museum.

The Old County GaIlows is Now in tho
Sutter Fort Museum.
Suffers Fort has another relic. The
Supervisors have donated to the Trus-
tees of that catch-all the old gallows
that had done duty in the County Jail
ever since the execution of Charles Nor
timer for the brutal murder of old Mrs.
Gibson in her shanty near the City
Jail
All the executions that have taken
place in this city since that time-up-
ward of twenty years ago-have been
on that old scaffold, but it is a great
many years since any hooded murderer
was dropped through its trap-door into
eternity. Some years ago the Legisla-
ture passed a law providing that exc
cutions shall take place at the State
Prisons, and as the old gaIlows was
only in the way and taking up valuable
space within the jail yard, the Super
yisors last week decided to get rid of it,
To Supervisor Todd are the Trustees
of Suffers Fort indebted for the sug-
gestion that resulted in the prize being
bestowed upon them, and 1t will hence
forth constitute one of the historic
relies" in that otherwise bloodless EN-
battlement. The guardian of the old
fort may not relish the companionship
of the ghosts of the men who met their
deaths on the old scaffolding, but if
they annoy him he can set the grim
neck-stretcher off in one of the rooms
by itself and leave the spirits to enter
tain one another.
