rumored that h< would r.ceivr biss-ntsnce t"
da\. on tbe opening of (he court. Mr, Clark
stat> d thai tbe prison, r, and his fatb. r, and
friends, had relieved him of any further connec
tion with the case, and he would therefore
withdraw bis motion in arrest "(Judgment, and
tbe court proceeded to pa*^ s-jrtence.
Judge NVylie directed the a. cased to b

11om his bands, he took his stand imsi diately
in front of tin- clerk's desk, standing up tirm!' ,

The prisoner received tbe announcement of
the sentence in an inditlerent aanner, and re
tained his position for a moment afterwards, as
if expecting that tbe Judge would addre*- uim
further. The Deputy Marshal touihed him on

where the irons were replaced on his hands.

" 1 have JT. ^ days to live," and, on ro-entering
the jail, said to the officers. ?' Well. I'm b*ci
