WcorxTOcK, O.-rr., Nov. 15. Birchall
paid the penally of his crime at 8:3. 'j
yeatstday morning.
The morning dawned bright and clear
It waa one of those Indian summer dsy
when men feel joy in !i ring, and in Ox
ford county, just in this pretty town, J.
Reginald Bircball awaited tbe hang
man's summons that hs waa ready to do
him. to death. Tbe condemned man
passed yesterday niucn a he bad passed
the days preceding during the last four
weeks.
His wife was with him uptj a late
hour tbe night before last and tbe meet
ing muat Lave been a trying one, a
Birchall appeared somewhat unnerved
yesterday and more inclined to reticence
snd gravity than on the previous dsy
He spent much of his time with Rev. H.
Vade, bis spiritual adviser, and ftieuds.
Every train brought crow da of people,
meetly repreeentaUva newspaper men,
and the hotels found it hard to provide
placee for alt. The sheriff waa besieged
for pease !o the execution, but le thsn
were issued. Mr. Birchall has
borne up wonderfully under the strain,
but spent most of yesterday in her bed.
Death Watch Midgely aaid to the Unit
ed reporter last night: "Birchall will
make uO confession: lie says he has
nothing to confess, and persists that h
ia innocent. Whether this is true or
not he has got wonderful nerve. The
interviews with his wife have been very
harrowing to assist in. He baa told her
just what he haa told me, that he did
not do the actual shooting, but ha has
had a fair trial and a good jury and he'll
have to swing."
The ofHcisle at the jail were early
astir that morning and some of theui
had been np all night. Birchall had
not slept, but watched and prayed
through the dreary hours with Rev. Mr.
Wade, whose loyal kindness and Chris
tian devotion haa stood him in good
stead. Breakfast was served to th
prisoner at 0 o'clock by Deputy White
head. Rev. Mr. Wads joined his in a
cup of wffee. Afterwards Sheriff Percy
and Priaon Inspector Chamberlain en
tered tba celt and tha death warrant
waa read ta tbe condemned man.
His friend Laetham had been admit
ted meanwhile, and as the fatal word
wars read BirchaUahaidderea a little-
ond turning to hia friend said: "Take
bold of my band sal man." Tbe re
quest was com plied wftb and the two
trisnda stood together. "Have you any-
uisnua snoos
thing to aay
law being fu
tor, finally, i
sat tbe warrant 01 thai
fulfiiwdr askad tha inspee-
whss tba sheriff finished
reading aod Birchall replied. liav
nothing to aay." A big wall enclosirs
carpeted with green sod and flanked on
the east by a aaildiap out up by barred,
windows waieh let Jight through the
masonry walla and U tbe corner, where
a new gibbet stood. The ward was full
of men with note books out and anx
iously gaxed alternately at the acaffold
and at the door io the building ap
proached by five atone aaspa. Then th
tsrribla sound of insasurad stsna sraac
heard to resound from the paved pass
age iato tha jail and a man 'a voice broko
the stillness with ths beautiful words:
Iamtbs resurrection and the life,"
and tbe peaksr appeared a handaoma,
kindly looking cWrgyman in his white
robes, book to hand and eyes turned;
upwards. It waa Hy. Mr. Wade, and
ho beaded tba procession of tba con ¬
demned. After him came the old
sheriff, with his cocked hat and inaiona
of office, and other jail officiate, and then
Birchall himself, very. bate, aod his
Slor intenaified by the-blus chevu t suit
wore.
Whan ha dacsnded tha step th
keeper took his left arm and hia friend
Tjsatham hia right, and between tbese-
two ho waucsd nnBweaiaaTly to ths gal-
Iowa and too a: ma uaoa oeneatn trie
beam a little east of ths center. -Lord
lot ma know my end aad tha number of
my daye, thai I may know how long L
have to live." It eosnded particularly
grim, this appeal of the goapel to those
who knew thst tba braver bad been ao-'
wered before it waa spoken, for Birch
all's vary laat mowsnta were counted.
Tbe m (bister tbea shook Birchall' hsnd 1
and kissed him good bye, after whijh
tha 39lh psalm was road through, and
tha hangman, grim looking, took Birch-!
all' shoulder aod squared him under1
