HENRY THE Theft.
The Black Heart OF tho Greedy Arc

The Black Heart Of the Greedy Arc
tic Expedition
On, of the many tragedies of the
Greedy arctic expedition vas the exc
cutfon Of Private Henry, who had
t"en caught time after time steal
ing food, from the scant store of the
starving party. Henry alone was
strong and active, thanks to the
stolen food and TO the fact that he
did no labor he could possibly shirk.
Lieutenant Greedy had warned an
warned Henry and had punished
him. but to no avail. and finally, af-
ter Il particularly despicable act of
theft, the commander, in fear, that
Hcnry's course would cause a gen.
e'ai raid on the store of food and
thus bring about the destruction OF
the whole party, condemned Henry
to death.
The story of The execution, which
makes new page in history, is told
in the American Magazine by Frank
Is. Copley. who got his idea direct
from the survivors of the expedition.
He writes:
All his lethargy gone, Greely dis
missed the man, seized pencil and
paper and, with trembling, emanci-
atel fingers, wrote:

'Sergants Brainard, Long and Fred

Notwithstanding promises given
by Private c. p. Henry yesterday,
he has since. as acknowledged to
me. tampered with seal seal things
If not other food at the old camp.
This pertinacity and audacity is the
destruction Of the party if not ut
once ended. Private Henry will be
shot to-day, all care being taking to
prevent him from injuring anyone,
as his physical strength is greater
than that of any two men. Decide

"Sergesnts Brainard, Long and
Frederick could not. as ordered. de
eide the manner OF death by two
balls and one blank cartridge
Greedy had failed to take into con-
sideration that at this time the
party had left only one servicable
rifle.
| The three sergeapts drew lots to
see who would do the shooting
When they had done SO they bound
themselves with an oath that the
identity Of the man thus chosen
should never be revealed.
| Henry was at the tent ut Gem
etery ridge with all the other men
when the time for putting him to
death came. What was to take
place. OF course, was known only to
the three sergeants and the com
mander. Two Of the sergeants re-
mained in the vicinity of the old
hut. while the third went to the
cent to bring Henry down.
The man who went for Henry
told him that he was wanted at
the old camp TO help carry up some
more of the supplies that had been
left there. Suspecting nothing, Hen
ry readily accompanied the sergeant
the place chosen for putting him
to death.
Now Greedy had repeatedly eau

no chances on Hcnry's getting away,
for, although none ut Cape Sabine
knew the mans past history. enough
oi tie m"n's black soul, had been
revealed to make his comrades feel
that no crime could be put past him.
So Brainard, Long and Frede rick.
cautioned by their commander and
warned by their own knowledge OF
the man with whom they had to
deal, had decided that Henry should
be made TO stoop to pick UP some
thing and that then he should be
shot from behind. AT least one of
these sergeants had no more COM
Function about killing him than he
would have had about killing
mad dog.
But one of the other two men
weakened at the last moment. To
shoot man in cold blood from be-

was too terrible thing for him to

proved disastrous.
