Dan Nemora, N. Y, October g.
The three Van Wormer brothers
Willis, Burton and Frederick-were
put to death in the electric chair in
Clinton prison between 1875 and
HAS o'clock to-day for the murder
OF their uncle, Peter A. Hallenbeck,
in the village OF Greendsle, Columbia
county, on Christmas evening two
years ago.
The first OF the three to die was
Willis, the eldest, chosen because
Warden George Deyo thought him to
be physically the weakest Of the three
and 80 most liable to a breakdown.
Frederick, the youngest Of the broth.
ers, followed Willis to the death
chamber, and Burton went to his
doom last.
The execution was pronounced by
the experts who witnessed it to be
the most skillful that ever took place
in this prison. The three men went
to their death calmly and bravely,
and their deaths were absolutely
wishout incident except for the audi.
bly, murmured prayers Of the young
est, who died with the name OF the
Deity on his lips, and the fact that
Willis, the eldest, assisted the keep
