He went avyay by himself to pray. At V:.I0 a. m. Weeks was leJ fiom his cell in murderers' row and taken to the little barred room above the turnkey's office to spend his laM hour with Matlie Weeks, his wife. As he left hi cell he turned to Orrie Cross, who is sentenced to hang Oc tober 27 for the ame crime, and said: "So long, Cross." Cross did not reply.

A breakfa't of bacon and eggs, oatmeal, bread, butter and eolire started the day for Weeks. "One might as well die with a full stomach as with an emptv one," Weeks remarked to the guard. In an interview late last night with Sheriff Kobb and newspaper men Weeks declared he i innocent of the Fosdick murder. "You can hang me I don't mind but you will find out some day that you bumped off the wrong man," he said. Weeks asked the sheriff to take him to the gallows a few minutes before the execution. "I want to tell those sightseer a few things before I die," lie declared. Robb Gets Threats. Sheriff Kobb received hundred of letters from church member in all parts of the country imploring him not to act as hangman. "Some of these letters were from religious fanatics who tried to scare me by saying I would burn everlast ingly in hell," the sheriff-preacher said. "Others were from thoughtful people who discussed the idea of capital punishment." He even received letter threaten ing him with death should he pull the trap on Week. The Folk county sheriff pcnt the night at Warden T, P. Hollowell's home, adjacent to the prison. "I took the oath to perform the duties of a sheriff and I will not evade my duty today," the sheriff stated.
