of the court,
Tho evldcnco showed one of tho most
dellberate and citrefully planned, us
well as the most cruei and atroclous
murdere. ever committed in thla sec?

kill her on the llth of the month
which was his twenty-tlrst birthday,
but tho opportunlty was not affordetl.
He said she was the only person he

but he had no regruts, und would do
tht same thlng: agaln, Hc said he ex
ptctcd to pay tne penalty wlth his llfo.
