1t was at first announced that the
negro was to be executed by hanging,
many. including the father of the
negroes victim. protesting that such
death would be too easy. and ii was
finally decided to leave the method OF
death to the outraged father. He de-
cided upon burning at the stake. The
train was then allowed to proceed and
at Lake station, about three miles
from Limon and near the scene of the
negro's crime. the party left the train
and began preparations for the deed
Of vengeance.
Wagons were dispatched for wood
and upon their return a score or men
assisted in preparing it for the fire.
When the last preparations were COM
pleted further delay was made be-
cause it was known many were on
their way to Hugo and other parts
Of the county to take part in the af-
fair. -
The negro had since his confession been
tleyoting every moment Of daylight TO the
perusal of IA Bible given him by the Dent

execution he sat by a bonfire reading
from the Gospel of st. Luke. Just before
he was tied to the stake. upon a rcuuesEa

that they can never agree of them

should not be dissipated by Legislation
