tilt +he usual time, from two until about half past

Inzular as it may appear, we were assured by

in cell, and continued with him until this morning.
Prof. Webster was notified some days since by
s `. Putman that it was customary in such cases to
Pee a guard over the prisouer the night before
execution. He made no objection,
but asked as a
are, if they did so that he migi#t have the priri•
of selecting Mr. J. C. Leighton, clerk of the

he was ao soon to sutler death. He ( f requently

most breezeless morning.
As sally as 5 Ir-2, Mr. Luther Denbo,' with a
NW of some sik or eight titer began the : work of
erecting the scaffold. It was located between the
iwc prisoners, near the centre of the yard: It was
'he same instrument upon which Washington

trap, Which was so adjusted that the executioner
might let it fall by simply placing his foot upon a
spring fixed by the floor immediately in front of
the 'Wain. At 1 3-4 o'clock the machine of death
was'fully comPfeted and in ihat dhection the dead.
ly notes ofpreparation ceased. • .
The scenes around the jail, appall*, tops of
private dwellihga were most resetting. From the
windows and tops of about thirty houses on Uowell,
quiseway and Leverett ats., the horrid Spectacle
was witnessed ‘ by men, women and children.
On the top of house No. 3 Lowell-st., planks
were arranged . to accommodate about 100 t•kraons.
The windowsiitall the other houses north, except
Mr Andrews, the jailor, Mr. Lovejoy'a, and two
others, awe filled principally with.women.
Tbe lola:ming is from the Bee, Eztm:—"We
noticed that to top of Mr. Ncah Wyeth's house,
51 Leretett-st., was lined by men and some few
women. We pained round to the front door, and
found it guarded by police officer. One man
said, " I will give a dater to go up, it I can see the
execution. - The officer'opened his blind door and
let him pass in. From his appeanmeetere should
judge the men who so foolishly partial with his
money (for we
.heard •it demanded of him) was
from the 'country. To be more certain that Mr.
Wyeth wakepectilating on views of a man killing,
we 'stepped' inside the door and asked him what he
would charge us to go on top his house and see
the'execution. He came toward us, with a hand full
ofbank bills, and said, " O'ne dollar sir?" We
stepped, back - and made this reccird, which Is only
a part of the proceedings." ,
IWe learn that one of the looses elated does bro
ken into by ihe=mob, so great was the. anxiety to
view the slaughter. They.did great damage to the
furniture. While in the house it was surrounded
with a pcnsiste of police, whodenied any of the par
ty the party the„privilage of coming out. how the
matter will end we cannot say.
The witnesses and officers began to gether gate
7 o'clock and continued to collect till about P.
There were about 125 spectators admitted to the
jail yard by passes from the. Sheriff, beside the of
ficers in attendance.
The whole number of constables and police offi
cals on duty vans 125; 25 constables and 25 police
were stationed at several ppints on the inside, and
75 were on - the ground outside the prison.
Rev. Dr. Putman arrived at the jail 7 1-2 o'clock
and immediately proceeded to the prisoner's cell.
where devqtional exercises were held.
Dr..Webflter was in the further corner cell on
the right, oh the lower 'floor of the nouth-eastern
building. •
At 9 1-2 o'clock Sherif f Eveleth snmtnoned to
,the rear office of the jail those gentlemen *hum he
had requested to be present as witnees, and there
read 10 them the order of w,hat was to follow,
together with the duties devolving upon his several
Deputies.
Among the names of the'winesses were the col -

Hooper, Thomas Gill, John T. Heard, John Beals,
William Barnicoat, J T. Crocker. Joseph Smith :
Osman Brewster, Benj. Adams, •B. Perefy Poore,
Olewell A. Thompson.
The &lend stated to the gentlemen present that
they had assembled by invitation f-nm hive as law
lul witnesses of the execution of John White Web
ster for the crime of ; murder, for which he had'
.been convicted anl 'sentenced. He detailed to
them the eider in whieh the proceedings would
take place, and expressed his hope that the utmost
quiet and good order be maintained, is consistent
with the solemnity of theoecasion. He hoped that
he should not hear any loud talking, not a voice
. ring the progress of the proceedings. •
,From the Jail.otfice, the Sheriff, supported by
Deputies Rugg and Freeman, proceeded to the
prisoner's cell, followed by the witnesses and oth
er deputies; where an impressive and eloquent
prayer was ordered by Rev.. Dr. Putnam, he being
the only officiating clergyman present. No other
services were held. The prisoner during prayer,
was in his cell to a kneeling position.
After prayer we had an opportunity to see Pro.
lessor Webster in his cell We had no: looked'
upon him since the day he was sentenced. He
was greatly altered for the better. We never saw
a more healthy looking filet/ than he appeared to
be Ilia countenance was much mote pleasant
than when he was upon •his that.
Shortly atter, at 9 20 o'clock., High Sheriff Ere,-
etli attended by Deputies Coburn, Freeman and
Ruge. Sir. Andrews, the Jailer, Mr. Holmes, the
Turnkey, aml. the- prisoner, accompanied by Dr
Putnam, came out and ascended the platform of
the scaffold, the prisoner taking his position upon
the drop.
Dr. Putnam immediately entered Into earnest
conversation with Prof Webster, and continued to
do so through the reading of the Governor's war
rant by the Sheinf and until Jailer Andrews stepp
ed for - ward to place!' the legs of the pri-nnet, when.
the Doctor shook Rev. Mr. Putnam affectionately
by the hand, bade him a final farewell, expecting
at the same time the hope that they should meet
again hi Heaven'.
The prisoner was dressed in a black suit, appa
rently the same clothes that be wore during his trial
Deputy Sheriffs Rugg-and Freeman, adjusted the
rope at just 25 minutes to ten o'clock.
Before the cap was drawn over his eyea he shook
hands with Jailer Andrews, Mr. Holmes,
and last
with the Sheriff and thankeii them for their kind
treatment to him.
Sheriff Eveleth than said :
"in the name of the Commonwealth of Massa
chusetts, and in accordance with the Chief Execu
tive, 1 now, before these witnesses, proceed to ex
ecute the sentence of the law upon John W. Web
ster, convicted at the March term of the Supreme
Juwcial Court, of the murder of Dr. George Turk
men."
This said, the Sheriff placeiL,h is foot upon the
fatal spring, and in an instant more the victim was
launched into eternity. He give several struggles
and all was over.
