■me out and went into the house I
Dial not realize what was going on.

out my gun and fired once through
the ceiling. That was the onlv shot
in red. Afterwards Arnold told me
that lie had laid out in the Young
blood yard close to the house with a
gun waiting for the woman to come
out and that he expected to kill her "
Immediately the black cap was
j placed over Andrews head and the
noose adjusted. While the chaplain
commended his soul to Ills maker,
| the water holding the great death
weight was trickling from the bucket
in an adjoining room. When the
weight dropped. Andrews' body shot
three feet into the air His neck was
broken, and, after the bod\ had hung
suspended for 30 minutes, life was
pronounced extinct by the attending
physician, and was then cut down.
Ten minutes later Arnold was led
out. He stepped on the platform
with a firm tread, never losing his
nerve for an instant. When asked
if he had any statement to make, lie
replied in the negative.
At exactly H:O7 Arnold was
launched Into eternity in exactly the
same manner as his partner. The
same lapse of time occurred before
the body was cut down and removed
jto the penitentiary morgue. Both
■bodies will he interred in the prison

| During the past moat it Peters, the
third man convicted of the murder
of Mrs. Youngblood, lias been grow

became necessary to place him In the

It is thought hv the penitentiary
physicians that he will not live un
til November, the time set for his
execution.
