SMALL SENTENCED
FOR WIFE MURDER
Broker Calm When Verdict Is
Returned booming Him
to Death.

ossIPEE, N. H, Jan. e.-Frederick
L. Small was sentenced to death by
hanging on January Is, 1918, by
Judge Kivel today.
The jury at 11:15 last night re-
turned a verdict Of guilty of murder
in the first degree, with capital pun
ishment as the penalty, after Small
had been circumstantially established
by the Commonwealth of New Hamp-
shire as the murderer OF his wife and
the author of a scientifically con-
ceived concealment plea which Edgar
Allan Poe might have been happy to
plagiarize from real life.
In his charge Judge Kivel directed
the jury that they must return a yer
dict either OF guilty OF murder IN the
first degree or one Of not guilty.
Receives Fate Calmly.
Although having under the law no
power to change the degree, he said,
they might impose life Imprisonment
by a simple verdict OF guilty, or could
doom Small to the gallows by adding
three WOTuS 70 InclE AluuluB- win
capital punishment"
Small received his fate calmly. The
fury had been out only four hours
and fifteen minutes, and more than
an hour Of that time had been spent
at dinner.
After Foreman Elmer N. Barry had
announced the jury's finding Small
sat with his arms around the shoul-
ders of William s. Matthews, his chief
counsel, and the two whispered to-
gether for several minutes. Later he
shook hands with newspaper men.
with most of whom he had become
acquainted In the days following the
murder.

boys" he said, his arms outstretched
and his voice trembling. 'T am an
innocent man, and look you in the
eyes and say I am innocent Of this
murder"
The next move" to which he re-
ferred was the appeal which his coun-
sci had already in preparation when
the case went to the jury.
It was within a few minutes OF $3.50
when the jury, briefly charged by
Judge k1Vel, retlreo 10 Wrestle To-
ward a legal solution OF the twin
mysteries OF Mrs. Smalps murder and
the chemically fed, mechanically
touched of IRE which, after her
death, whipped away the bungalow
in smoke.
Insurance as Motive.
The trial furnished one Of the most
grewsome legal displays in the history
Of New Hampshire. The head Of Mrs.
Florence Arlene Small. for whose muir
der Small was on trial. was one Of the
exhibits placed before the jury Of the
State.
Small was accused Of having murder
ed his wife and then setting fire to their
bungalow by means OF chemicals and
mechanical arrangement. The charred
body was found by neighbors- Twenty
