To the priest who at tended him he said: T have sinned less than you: clear out of here''
 On the way to the gallows the mur- derer Whistled q popular tune. He made an address to the SDecta tors in which he said: You will have better sport to-day than I. l would like to see what my corpse would look like dangling in the air.''
 When the rope was placed around his neck he said: Don't knock my hat off; it's a new hat" He died with q smile on his face.
