Silence followed the call of the desk

stairs to the street few minutes
later one of the shift was absent.
William Powell, thirty years old, had
sent bullet from his automatic service
revolver into his brain while alone al

When his wife and their little boy

Powell died in the house past which
he nightly paced his post. His fellow

pride and sadness, exhibited PowelIs

the suicide.
"Never a complaint" said the desk

was asked if he had anything to say,
but on each occasion replied NO"
Asked pointedly If he killed the Pha-
gan girl, he is said to have made no
reply whatever.
No attempt was made to force con-
fession. Franks statement just prior
to his death that he loved his wife
and mother better than he did his life,
came unexpectedly and without ques-
tioning.
Frank was not maltreated in any
way prior to the actual lynching.
Frank walked a distance of 200
yards from the automobile to the death
tree without faltering step;> without
sigh or sembance Of protest.
Frank was told from the start that
he was to be executed as the courts
had directed that he be and every eff
fort was made by the so-called "vigi-
lance committee to see that the legal
hanging. as they termed the lynching
was carried out in an orderly manner
Members Of the vigilance committee
are said to resent any intimation that
Frank was maltreated while in their
custody.
