touching his dead friend exquisitely and
tpn1arly falfnxyc.

"You ask me for a brief expression
Of my sentiments upon the death Of
David G. Worth. 1t is hard to do JUS
tice to such "A character in few words.
Although several years my senior, he
was my classmate at the University, and
have known him well for forty-hye
years. i never knew truer or more
honorable gentleman. He was one OF
the first honor men of his class, and
exhibited throughout his college career
the same characteristics which marked
his subsequent life. Quiet, modest,
manly, and kindly he commanded the re-
spect of faculty and students alike. He
possessed more than ordinary ability,
and applied himself with diligence to
his studies, while he conscientiously per-
formed every duty. He had none of
the vices or bad habits to which young
men are so often inclined, although he
was full of vivacity. The University
never had a student of whom she could
more justly be proud, and of late years
has had few, if any, more generous
benefactors. OF his life for the last
thirty-five years or more here in Will
mington, it would be useless to speak.
AS n clear-headed merchant and bust
ness man, as a public-spirited citizen,
as an open-handed friend and benefac-
tor of the poor and distressed, and as
faithful and exemplary Christian, he
stood pre-eminent in this community.
He bore long and painful illness with
the resignation and patience which only
such character could exhibit, and has
at last entered upon the rest which re-
maineth for the people of God, leaving
to his family an honored name, and to
I. l.. ,l,,N
DRY that will smell sweet and blossom
in the dust"
DR.. Edwin A. Alderman, who came
last night to render for the University
the last tribute of respect to its friend
and benefactor, said memorial services
in honor of Mr.. Worth would be held at
Gerard Hall at the University on Fri
day, the Goth instant. nT. Worth en-
dowed the chair of history, and has been
very generous and liberal to the institu-
ton in many ways. When student at
the University he belonged to the Delta
Kappa Epsilon fraternity and in after
years was one of the most liberal con
tributors toward the building and fur
nishing of the fraternity hall. He was
one of the largest donors towards the
constitution OF the alumni hall, and re-
Gently himself had the chapel remodeled
and furnished. His death will indeed,
be great loss to the University, and
President Alderman deeply feels it.

stated that the meeting had been called
TO take action concerning the death of
one who had been so influential in the
body and who was so greatly beloved
by all. He asked what action the ex-
change desired to take.
Mr.. James Sprunt made a calm review
of the life and services of the deceased.
Remarks were further made by Presi-
l. al al
Roger Moore, Col. w. l.. DeRosset and
others.
The committee on resolutions, COM
posed of Messrs. William Calder, Chas.
III. Robinson and ID. l.. Gore, pre-
scented resolutions appropriate to the
life and character of the deceased,
which were, by rising vote, unani-
mously adopted. The members of the
Exchange attended the funeral this
morning in a body, and business was
suspended and stores closed from 1920
to II, Mr.. Boney stating at the Ex-
change that general suspension of
business was due to the memory of such
a man.
Suitably similar action was taken by
the Chamber of Commerce, also, and
memorial services will be held at the Y.
M. G. A. next Sunday. Both organiza-
tons attended the funeral in body
this morning at II CLOCK.

He pointed out that this was a great
pun lshment than was authorized by the
verdict and the law, ana that therefore 1t
would vitiate the order of the court.
Judge Bahrs again disagreed and denied
the motion to strike out.
"We ask that the execution OF that part
of the judgment in relation to the defend
ants removal 10 San Quentin be staid for
three days." said Mr.. Deuprey.
II can't grant it," said the Judge.

said mo"
''But understand your Honor to order
that the removal of the defendant should
take place within ten days, and supposed
you would be willing to give him an op-
portunity to preserve his legal rights, ~
pursued Mr.. Deuprey.
II have M ade the order in this case and
don't propose to change it," was the clos.
ing remark by Judge Bahrs, as he in
formed the clerk that court was adjourned.
Bail:ffs Rock and Whelan devoted the
next ten minutes to dispensing the crowd
In the courtroom. The people lseemed
fascinated by the spectacle of fellow hu-
man standing within the shadow of the
gailows, ana it was with difficulty that
they could be induced to bulge. Men and
women climbed on top of chairs and
benches and pulled and. hauled wildly In
their efforts to get nearer view of the
man who Tor the second lime had been
condemned to expiate on the gibbet the
crime for which lie stands convic ed.
As for Durrant, ne was the coolest per-
son in the room. He showed no emotion

them that nothing would be more out of
place than demonstrations, either of ap-
proval or disapproval, ON account of any
thing that should be done in this case.
These remarks by his Honor were re-
ceived in silence and the admonition was
well needed.
Among those present were ex-Judge
Murphy, Lucky E. J. Baldwin. Chief of
Police Lees, Assistant District Attorney
Hosmer, County Clerk Curry, great
many lawyers and quite a number of
women.
Mr.. Durrant, father of the prisoner, sat
chatting with his son during the wait that
ensued after the court was called to order
Mr.. Deuprey arose and in gentle tones
asked for delay of few minutes until
an affidavit that was in course of prepara-
ton could be presented for the court s
consideration. This request was granted
as matter of courtesy, and the three
Judges on the bench exchanged comm on
places about the weather and the latest
news of the war in Crete, until the paper
for which Mr.. Deuprey was waiting was
handed in.
Durrant took the document, looked it
over and dipping pen in an lnKwell be-
fore him deliberately signed his name.
Then he arose and raised his hand 10
heaven while Deputy County Clerk Corey
administered the oath. As the words $50
help you God" were uttered Durrant
graVeIy nOuueu, MS lips moved, out ne
made no audit BILE sound.
Immediately Judge Bahrs ordered Dur
rant TO stand up, and as he arose Mr..
Deuprey took a position by his side, but
shortly afterward resumed his seat, while
Judge Bahrs addressed the prisoner in
these words:
"WilIiam Henry Theodore Durrant, you
have been brought into this court by the
Sheriff of this City and County in pur-
suance of an order made by me, upon The
application of the District Attorney of
this City and County.
"a judgment of teath was heretofore.
on Decem ber 6, 1895, pronounced again t
you for the murder of one Blanche La.
mont on the Sd day of April 1895, in tie
City and County of San Francisco, State
of California, of which crime you were
duly convicted on the 1st day of Novem-
Der, 1895, as appears by the remi.titur
from the Supreme Court of the State of
California. now on file in this court; said
The San Francisco call., 1897-04-11

faster or slower there was no mark of
that fact in his department. His hands
did not shake with excitement and lis
eyes gave back to those who addressed
HIM the same steady gaze that is so Ia
miliar to those who have been associated
with him since as we'll "a before his
arrest. His grasp was cordial and his
bearing was courteous to those with whom
he engaged in conversation. When he
spoke his voice betrayed no tension. 1t
was low and well modulated, though lie
had few words to bestow-on any except
his father and Mr.. Deuprey, his attorney.
Not few of Durrant's former acquaint-
ances pressed forward to offer brief sug.
sestions OF hope or consolation. There
was the suggestion of smile on his lips
as he accepted these greetings.
II have not lost hope, but l do not care
10 talk of my case and my plans just at
this time,'' he said.
For nearly quarter of an hour Durrant
chatted unconcernedIv with those around
him. Then Sheriff Whelan touched the
murderer of Blanche Lamont on the
shoulder and surrounded by a dozen
Deputy Sheriffs and half dozen police
men, ,he prisoner was conveyed through
the corridors of the new City hail to the
Sheriff's office.

the facts and the law involved herein, and
l ask permission to read the affidavit on
which l base this application"
Judge Bahrs graciously inclined his
head and Mr.. Deuprey read the affidavit
that Durrsnt had ust signed, which was
to the effect that Attorney John II. Dick
inson acted as leading counsel for the de-
tense during the trial. that Mr.. Dickinson
is a bsent from the City and that il would
greatly jeopardiZe the prisoner 8 legal
rights if the matter of passing sentence
should be proceeded with during M.
Dickinson's absence. The affidavit con-
cuded with a statement that Mr.. Dickin-
son would return in week and that he
asked for q continuance of all proceedln gs
until the 18th inst.
After concluding the reading of the affi-
davit Mr.. Deuprey said: "1 our Honor,
l have had no opportunity to consult with
General Dickinson since the last decision
bv the Supreme Court touching this case
was handed down. This Is the first time
that the defendant, Durrant, has been
called on TO appear in this court since
the receipt of the remittitur from the Su-
preme tribunal That was only week
ago. | submit that the Importance of
this case may be properly urged as a rea-
son for brief delay.
"It may be suggested by your Honor
that the presence OF one OF defendants s
counsel NAV suffice at this time, vet | beg
you to bear in mind that Mr.. Dick inson
was in attendance during the trial a
greater part of the time than l was, and
that he is more familiar with all the par
ticulars OF the proceedings than any other
person. L do not ask anything unreason-
able; L simply request that the matter go
over for one week, in order that there may
be proper and just arrangements for the
preservation of the defendants legal
rights In asking for this brief postpone
ment 1 appeal to the great discretion OF
this court, in the name of humanity and
justice"
District Attorney w. s. Barnes made a
short reply. He said that notices of yes
terdays proposed proceedings had been
served ON Mr.. Deuprey and Mr.. Dickin-
son, although there was no statute requir-
ing that service. and that Mr.. Dickinson
had subsequently said he knew OF the day
set for passing sentence.
II know of no man moro competent
than Mr.. Deuprey to represent the de-

force, the law requires me now to inquire
into the facts. 10 determine if any legal
reason or reasons exist against the execu-
ton OF the judgment of death heretofore
pronounced against you.
Therefore, William Henry Theod ore

should not proceed 10 make an order

directing said warden to execute, at time

Instantly Mr.. Deuprey came to the res
cue of the prisoner, and said: your
Honor, we ask for reasonable continu-
ance or account of the considerations of
