HANGING EARLY THIS MORNING.
Joe Dep, John Evans and Henry Judge
Pay the Penalty Of their Crime
at Winchester.

The death watch had been set,
the scaffold built and all arrange
ments completed for the hanging
at Winchester. 1t was general
ly understood that the hanging
was to be private. Sheriff Stew
art had been warned that unless
he tore down the enclosure and
let all who wished see the hang
ing, the fence would be torn
down by the crown. Probably
for this reason and to avoid
trouble, it was decided to have
the hanging early before the
crowd would assemble. Only
about eighty people witnessed
the execution.
Promptly at a quarter of six
the prisoners were led to the
scaifold. Joe Delp had nothing
to say except that he was ready
to be hung. John Evans made a
little talk also, stating that he
was ready to die. Henry Judge
said that if he was guilty he
ought to be hung, that he hated
to die on such II record and leave
his wife and children. The trap
was sprung promptly at6'o'clock.
Delp's neck was broken by the
fall. Evans and Judge strangled
to death.
The crime for which Judge,
Evans and Delp suffered death
was the murder in August, 1908,
of Simon Biicher and wife at
their home several miles from
Winchester. Delp, according to
his own confession, corroborated
by Evans, shot Biieher after he
had induced him to 90 into a
field near his house. He shot
Bucher in the back with a double
barreled shotgun, and Evans who
was seated ON the porch talking
to Mrs. Biicher, shot her with a
pistol. She ran into the house,
and two more shots were fired by
the murderer. The house was
then set on fire and the body of
Mrs. Biicher was cremated. The
two men thought that the wound
received by Biicher had resulted
in immediate death, and they
left the scene of the awful crime.
Biicher did not die until the next
evening, however. To those who
found him in the field next morn
ing he related the story, and said
that the gun used belonged to
Judge. The two men were ar
rested, and they confessed say
ing that Judge had promised to
give them ten dollars if they
would get Biicher and his wife
out of the way. Judge and Biich-
er had had some trouble over
land.
