MURDERER FRED. FITZSIMMONS

‘While in Jail at New Orleans. Sensa“
tional Ending .f a Remarkable
Criminal Career.
New Orleans, Feb,: 6— Fred C. Fitzsim-
mons died in a Mafia cell ofthe old Pa'ish
5 prison with the stroke of 1 o’clock Thursday
morning, from the effects of wounds in his
throat inflicted by himself.
There were no tears at his dying, no
prayers, no sorrowing friends. ‘As he lies
dead he presents a shocking picture
bandages and blood stains contributing their
share to the spectacle. His eyes were closed
and bis slender hands folded across, his
breast when the grim messenger came. | The
expression upon his face is one of defiance.
His iron nerve lasted to the end.
Fitzssmmons had been fully identified
and knowing that he would have to go
back to the scene of his crime determined to
seek liberty through death. He ‘was being
taken care ofin the hospital department of
the prison, After dressing he sat down at
a table and wrote a letter which he placed in
his pocket. Then he asked fora cigarette
{and when a nurse promised to go out and
secure some paper, he went to a bed, threw
himself on it and drew a blanket over his
face. Those in the room heard him
groaning, but believed him dreaming.
About twenty minutes after Fitzsimmons
had lain down Detective Murphy and a
Pittsburg newspaper man came to the bed
and pulled off the. blanket. They were
startled to see Fitzsimmons covered with
blood and gasping. Assistance was sent for.
An examination showed that the murderer
hadstabbed himself with a penknife three
times in the left side and once on the right,
the knife penetrating deeply. Every medi-
cal attention was shown him, but withoul
avail. a
The letter Fitzsimmons wrote was ad-
sed the newspapers, and is as
follows: ;
New Orleans, La., Feb. 3, 1892.
Sir—The Sunny South and the Crescent
City carry none but the most pleasant
recollections in my memory. During
repeated residences of some. fificen' years
past, 1 have found the . citizens of New
Orleans none other but noble, charitable and
humane. True, the last year of my exis-
tence has been a blot of alamentable charac-
ter, the result of crime with “its fatal conse-
quences. Here I have found my Waterloo;
hence I prefer death and a relief of any
further mental and ‘physical “suffering and
disgrace, and dragging further in the mire.

My beloved wife is a daughter of a once
prosperous planter and river captain, but
who, like other citizens of the South,
became impoverished through te effects of
thecivil war. My wife; ' Lacy Rebecca
Fitzsimmons, was unjus:ly convicted at the
Allegheny county court of Pennsylvania of
murder in the second degree through the
testimony of a perjuring detective, viz.: P. J.
Murphy, and a prejudiced jury anda J udge,
and sentenced to eight years’ imprisonment,
Knowing I am about to hurl myself into,
eternity, Ido most solemuly swear before
Almighty God that my wife is as innocent
of any complicity in the crime charged at
my door a8 amew-borvo babe. 5
I effected my escape from the Allegheny
county jail unaided by © any, « officials con-
nected with that institution, because I fore-
saw my conviction before m
against me. The bright, sunny atmosphere
that once encircled my soul is replaced by
a gloomy, sad heart, that only death can
alleviate, because of the distressed condition
in which I leave a noble, Christian and
beloved wife and mother.

He was deposited there Friaay afternoon by
Undertaker ¥. Dufreche. here were no
mourners at the funeral, no minister, no
flowers, no music but the clinking of the
bricklayer’s trowel.
Frederick Carrolton Fitzsimmons was
about 38 years old. He was born in Brook-
ville, in the Province of Ontario, Canada,
and was the son of prominent parents. At
an early age he drift=d into crime, a fall
record of which would fill many newspaper
columns. .
The crime charged against him, commits
ted on March 21,7 1891, at Fitzsimmon's
house, near Pittsburg. He had been sus-
pected of the robbery of several jewelry
storesin this vicinity, and en the afternoon
of that day Detectives Gilkingon and Murphy
called at the house with warrants for his
arrest. They were met by Mrs. Fitzsimmons,
who became greatly frightened on seeing the
men. The woman’s shrieks awoke Fitz-
simmons, who was sleeping in an adjoining
room, and as he rushed into thé room,
followed by his child, he saw his wife s'ag-
gering around the roomy. He then drew his
revolver, whilethe detectives drew theirs,
and the shooting began. Detective Gilkinson
fell dead at his feet. He was grappling with
Detective Murphy, who: had him down,
when he cried out to his wife to give him bey,
pistol, which was on the mantel piece in the |
room. ~ She gave it to him, he continued to
fire at Murphy and wounded him. His wife
was wounded in the arm by one of the
detective’s bullets. ,
After leaving the house he was pursued
by a crowd, and arrested. Detective Murphy
returned to the house with a squad of police
to capture Fitzsimmons, but arrested srs.
Fitzsimmons. Two daysafter Fitzsimmons
was arrested. The public clamor ran ‘so
high at the time that he was afraid his wife
would be lynched, and to prevent anything
like this, he says, he concluded to: return,
and submit to being arrested. He secured
ample counsel to defend her and spent nearly
. $7,000 toward haying her liberated, but. the .
feeling was figainst her, and she was conviet-
ed and sentenced to the pnitentiary for
eight year. n the night of September 15th
Fitzsimmons escaped from the Allegheny

On account of his extensive travels Fitz

ability. French and Snanish he spoke
fluently. During a Gentral American war it
ig related that Fitzsimmons stolea ship and

disposed of at a Spanish port.

sition on the Boston & Albany Railroad at Chatham,

«When my baby boy was two years old he was
covered from head to feet with salt rheum. It be-
gan to come out on him when he was two weeksold,
and increased in spite of all that could bé done.
We were Discouraged
The doctors said it would disappear when he wai
seven years old. I happened to be .taking Hood's
Sarsaparilla myself and thought I would give it to
the child. At that time he did not have a hair
on his head, and it was covered with a crust. His >
sufferings were awful. In two weeks after giving
him Hood's Sarsaparilia the seabs began fo fall off,
‘ and in six weeks he was entirely cured ol
the sores. He is now the healthiest child we have. I
know of two other cases in which
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
aid the same as for my boy 'It 18:8 great medicine.”
