THIS Is THE BIRTHDAY OF
Ignace Guillofne,
Is IT YOURS7
MAY 27, 1898.

Guillotine-or GuillItin--was not the
originator Of the instrument of death
which carries his nam, as some writers
have stated. Guillotine as born in
Saintes, France, in 1875. and there are
records TO show that this machine for
beheading people existed with the Per-
SLAMS centuries ago; aid that under
the name, Of .'the maiden a similar
machine was used in Scotland in 1881.
When Guillotine was in his fifties he
was a member of the constituent as
sembly in France. In talking Of cap
| ital punishment fer offenders he stated
that all such cases should be punished
the same way. by decapitation by
means &c 4 machine. The machine
was to render the process az painless
as possible. The first debate ended in
peals OF laughter but gradually the
idea took hold and a German named
Schmidt was found 70 build such a
machine. Experiments were made on
dead bodies from the hospitals. until
1 a satisfactory model was produced. 1t
consisted Of two uprights with a large
! ;1ivcn nviIius ns-n eaged nIIi:s
weighted SO as to drop suddenly and
| with great force on the unfortunate
neck under it.
| The first public execution was that
Of a famous hiehwaynan. The ma
chine itself was called Louisette, but
the populace connected it with Gull
ilotine, and would call it nothing else
The connection of the instrument with
the horrors of the French revolution
kept it from being introduced into
other countries.
