Ilowaer, were tbe vle- t'ras. The crime for which they were exe- cnted was the cold-blooded murder cf ! Tolly Taul. an old lady who resided in 1 Croy Is township, and Cassia Monday, a ! young girl wbo was living with be r for tie j purpose of learning to weave. Tbe crime ! 1 ait committed for the enrnmw of rottberv. I It being thorght that the old lady bad a considerable amount of money about ber j premises. Two men. Joho Ream of Jark- son township, ar.d David Riddle of Jeffer- soo tvouoty. were first arret-ted and trWd bet were a.-tjaitted. It being conclusively - shown by Indisputable testimony that they were in other localities at the time the mur ders were committed. Baser and Uowser were afterward arrested and at their trial which took plsce st December term 186-';, were convicted. They were confined In tbe old jatl and bung on tbe COtb April. 1390, to a temporary enclosure erected for tbe pur pose. About two weeks before the execu tion Baser attempted to cheat tbe law by committing suicide by opening a vein in his arm with a piece of tin. Be stood up talk ing to one of his guards at his cell door un til ha fell over from tbe weakness eausM by tbe loss of blood, when his condition wss discovert d and measures taken to prevent l!s repetition. Tbe two men were executed at the same time on a double scaffold and met their end without flinching. Ex Sberlff Myers of Ebensburg. was Shetiff at tn tim? n3r and Uowser were executed. Michael Moore was tbe next; tbe crime for which bn stretched the hemp was tbe brutal murder ot bis wife in the woods about one and three-quarter miles south east of Min eral Point. Moore had been separated rrt m his wife for a number of years, the woman, leaving him on account of bis cruel treat ment. She went to fbiiadelphia where tbe remained as a housekeeper for a family for nearly twenty years. Moore In after years, I wuhont coing through the formality ot a di voice, gave oat that his Wife was dead and remarried.' Some of bis neighbors be gan .talking up the matter of his having two w Ives living and Moore concluded to gt the first woman out of tbe way. lie went to Philadelphia, bunted up his wife aed lead tn e. her to believe that be was a changed man Induced her to return and tire with him. On bis way back be stopped off at Tyrone, then went to Osceola where ha tried to purchase some poison. Not suc ceeding he and his wife took: the train, and en the night of February 29tb. 1873, tbe two got off at Mineral Point, only a short dis tance from where Moore bad his home with , , . .... . b!s Sfcond wife. That was the last seen of ins women alive. Tbe next morning a young man. residing on a farm In tbe neigh "TbotA s -rted out to hunt foxes and found ti e remains of a murdered woman. Moore was arrested, tried at June Court. 1872, and j convicted. He was the first piisoner that eorerea tne new jn, oemg connnea mine sld jail at the time of the removal to the new one on the IS Lb of April. 1S72. About a month previous to .the execution Sheriff Bonacker suspected Moore was Attempting to get out. and on attempting to remove Moore to another cell, he became desperate and seizing a piece of iron pipe that be hd broken off from his cell, threatened to kill the first luaa wbo would enter. Sheriff Bonacker was compelled to use his revolv er, bhooting him once In the wrist and thigh, when Moore came to terms and wa re moved to another cell. Oa an examination of bis cell after bis removal it was discov ered that he bad been working on tbe wall. using the iron pipe for working out the j stone and - mortar, and had he been left a Ions would have made hie t scape. lie dor.e trie work at night and during tbe day time covered up the evidence of bis work with bis bed. Re was executed oo tbe 27 in ot November, 1872, In the yard of the preeeot jail, tbe scaffold standing opposite tbe door that leads from tbe jail to tbe yard on tbe nortb side. The fourth and li.pt hanging previous to Carter, was Michael Murray whoae execu tion took place oo tbe 23rd September, lSfcf, the scaffold occupying the frame ground as that upoo wntcb Micbael Moore was hung. The crime for which Murray paid Uie death penalty was tbe cruf-l and wanton muidi-r (f Johu Handcuff in the Fall ot lwi, lo Washington township, oo the pub lic road near wbat is known as Lemmon's old old stone powso. Murray was a nort of a crank, done - wotk aod spent his time wandering over the country. A. fcbort time before tbe murder, Murray passed by the farm of Handcuff, when some men wb were working in a field digging potatoes shouted some bantering remarks to him. ' Handcuff waa not present but Murray, oa mrettog him on tbe road a few days after, charged blui with It and shot him dead, j Murray was triod at June Court, l.-4. con victed, and nuDg on the 23rd of (September, following.
