23 years of age, was a boiler maker by trade,

passing it round his neek, strangled him.
She then dragged the body to the ground,
aod with a kutle commenced cutting it to

is too bad to keep him locked up for nothing,

He 1s not confined to prison fare, but has his
meals brought him from home regularly, and
he is supplied with whatever he requires in the
