Goods Will Be Done" He
Says in Italian as Sentence
Is Pronounced.

There was a solemn scene In the Grim
.0lal Branch OF the Supreme Court to-
day when Justice Vernon NJ Davis sem
fenced Domenico Fiorentino, a Neapol-
tan. to die In the electric chair some
time In the week OF Feb. 10.
Fiorentlno. young in appearance, a
giant In frame, was convicted Of the
murder OF the husband OF the woman
he loved. The murderer lived with the
couple, Natalie Mauro and his wife, In
the village OF Westminster, and on Oct.
IS shot Mauro In the back, killing him
Instantly.
When Justice Davis called Florentlno
20 the bar the courtroom was crowded,
Tiorentino, clad in new gray suit,
gazed appealingly at the black robed
Justice and then in wonder at the row
OF Jurors who had pronounced his doom.
Have you any legal cause to show
why the sentence Of death should no,
ney Of the prisoner.
Fiorentino looked aghast. An inter.
prefer conveyed the clerks words to
him. The condemned man shook his
head. His counsel made motion for
. new trial in quick, hurried tones.
Justice Davis shook his head In denial
Tell him." the Justice told the in.
terpreter, that he Is about to be sen.
fenced to die. Tell him that the Jury
convicted him of murder In the first
degree, the penalty for which is death, &"
The interpreter whispered the Jus.
ices words to Fiorentno. There was
no response,
Tell him." Justice Davis continued,
shat the verdict was right, justified
BY the evidence. Tell him his crime
was cowardy one and one that the
law Is quick to avenge."
Again the interpreter told the con-
6emned man what the Justice had said.
rtorentino mumbled through his lips,
"sancta Maria, ora pro me. peccatore,
bunc ct In bora mortis meae."
Under Sheriff John Gilchrlst, standing
Ut the prisoners side. bowed his head
silently.
Tell him." continued the Justice,
!, sthat the Court designates the week be-
F\Gtnnlng Feb. Is as the date for his exc.
! cution. May God have mercy on him."
The doomed man bowed his head.
"Sia fatta la voonta di Dlo" Good
will be done'). he replied to the inter-
prefer.
In a moment the Under-Sherlff had
che rianacles on the condemned mans
wrists and hurried him out OF court
on his way to the silent chamber with
