last night In the death house at the
Charlestown state prison. Some time

Contrary to expectations, Richeson did
not break down.
After the party had entered the Jail
van, policemen had to clear way thru
the crowd OF spectators outside the
walls but there was no disturbance.
AS Richeson stepped out of the van
and started toward the death house,
his head was held low. AT the door
way he gave one look upward at the
blue sky which he was probably to see
for the last time, and entered the
windowless building.
