MT Squires assisted in the solemn exer- cises: the Sheriff was accompanied by his Deputies, Messrs. Conkey and Keene.
 An assembIage of several thousand attended. notwithstanding the extreme unpleasantness of the day, to witness the melancholy spectacle of the day. The victims were guarded from the prison doors to the gal1ows, by several companies of militia, under command of Gen Warren.
 The prisoners belonged to the 18th IL s. Infantry About the 9th of Au- gust last, these men, together with Benjamin Dart. 6who escaped from Prison in May last,) went as a patrole from Conjocketa Creek down the Nj agara river, with orders to proceed 1 and 1-2 miles and return, under the command of Thompson, who was cor pora1
