BODDY DIES In CHAIR
FOR DOUBLE MURDER
Shows No Remorse for Killing
Two Detectives; Reads
Novel Until Last.
SMITH PAYS PENALTY TOO.
Slayer of Nineveh Postmaster
Continued to Draw Pictures
in Cell on Final Day.

Luther Boldly, the negro thug who
murdered Detectives William Miller and
Francis j. Buckley in Harlem last jan
uary, was put to death in the electric
chair at Sing Sing last night. Herbert
w. Smith, who killed Postmaster Lewis
johnson at Nineveh Junction and who
has achieved some notoriety during his
confinement IN the death house because
he drew a few pictures, was also exc
cuted Both men were dead a few min
utes after the electrician threw the
switch that sent the current into the
chair.
Neither Boldly nor Smith showed any
remorse for his crime or fear at the
fate that awaited him. During the
afternoon Boldly occupied himself read
ing one Of Robert w. Chamberss novels.
while Smith drew pictures and pre-
sented them 10 the keepers. He was
closely watched, however. 50 that he
might not kill himself with the pencil.
When led down the corridor and through
the little green door into the death
chamber. where row of witnesses sat
on board benches beyond the chair, both
men said "Good-by, boys" TO the other
will soon follow them.
Several witnesses commented on the
rather curious fact that almost every
man who has been killed at Sing Sing
in ten years has said "Good-by, boys"
when the keepers came to lead them to
the chair. 1t has grown to be almost
an established custom for the con-
demned men to say that, just as 1t has
become custom for them to have
whatever they want for their last meal
on earth.
For his last dinner Boldly had shrimp.
pickles, cake and tea, but he did not
seem to worry when a guard said that
wasNather an indigestible combination.
Smith ate pork chops, bread and but
ter and cake and smoked a cigar. After
dinner Boldly returned to his book.
reading as rapidly as possible, so that
he might find out how it ended before
he was killed. He did not learn, but a
guard who had read the book told him
that it came out all right.
Boddy's mother, Mrs. Ella Boldly of
Montclair. n. j.. visited him in the
death house few hours before he died.
Smith, who formerly lived at Hancock,
ter that he preferred to have them re-
main away from the prison. He wrote
them that their coming would only bring
useless and unnecessary suffering 70
everybody concerned. Smith never had
a visitor during the two years he has
spent in the death house.
The execution of Boldly and Smith
rounded out just 200 persons who have
been put TO death in the electric chair
a. Sing Sing since 1t was first used on
July Z. 1891. On account of the pub
licity given TO Boddy's crime scores OF
persons had asked for permission TO
witness the execution. but the number
of witnesses ives limited to twelve, ex-
elusive Of newspaper men and prison
attendants.
1t is the law that certain number OF
witnesses must see the condemned man
strapped into the chair. the electrician
throw the switch and the prisoner die.
