He was preceded by two ministers,
the Rev. Thomas Hughes, of Ed
wardSville, and the Rev. G. F..
Lauer, prison chaplain, who chant
ed in unison-"The Lord is my
shepherd, I shall not want. He
Twelve witnesses watched him

adjusting the straps. His eyes were
on the lips of the Rev. Hughes, who
still was chanting the 23rd Psalm
When the death mask was put in
place, he took deep breath.
Amen" said the ministers,
reaching the psalms end. At that
instant, the current was turned on,
Three minutes later he was pro-
nounced dead.
