THE CHASE EXECUTION.
W. T. Cox, Who Saw Him Hanged, Re
calls Some of the Facts.
Two weeks ago an article appeared in
the Punxsutawney Spirit concerning
the Chase execution, and Mr. Nlnlan
Cooper, of this place, called our atten
tion to the fact that there were some
errors in the S'piHC article, and he
was to havo given us the corrections,
but amidst tho multitudinous duties
that confront a country editor tho mat
tor was overlooked last week. W. T.
Cox, of Sandy Valley, however, took
tho matter up and wrote a letter to the
Spirit, which was published in that
paper Inst week and which we clip
and published, ns follows:
"I noticed in a reevnt issue of your
paper an item in regard to the hanging
of Charles Chaso. Your Informant was
jiift ten years too late in his dato, and
was also mlstakon about tho Implement
used to commit tho murder. It was not
a hatchet, but a muni used tcf drive tho
frow used In splitting shlngln bolts.
Tho murder was committed February
19, 1807, and tho execution took place
August 28 of tho same year. Chase's
full namo was Charles Wlnton, and his
accomplice was William Doan Craves.
They wore employed by Roderick Mo
Donald at making split shingles when
thoy conceived the Idea of killing their
employer's aunt, who lived alone in a
little furm bouso. Chase wns captured
the next day after the murder In a barn
on tho road between Brockwayvlllo and
Rldgway. Ho was Intoxicated. Graves
was captured a few months later in
Michigan, where he was traced by hav
ing used gold to pay his expenses. Gold
was at a high premium at that time,
being out of gcnornl circulation, and
naturally excited commont. William
Norrls, who still lives near Reynolds
vlllo, was ono of tho jurors who convict
ed Chaso. , Thomas North and John
Frampton, of Punxsutawney, are two
others of tho surviving jurors.
On tho duy before Chaso was hangod
his futhor, mother and two brothors,
who livod noar Karthaus, Cloarfiold
county, started to drive to Brookvllle.
When thoy reached Hoynoldsvillo th
mother of tho condemnod man stopped
at the rcsidonco of Thomas Reynolds,
and romalned there until after' the ex
ecution. Tho others drovo on. I saw
them coming out of tho jail after they

in was ji uuiuuk a. m. iiu was unngeu
at 2o'clock p. m. Thero was a large
crowd in Brookvlllo and tho Sheriff
had armed guards placed all around the
jail yard. I witnessed the exocutlon
from tho roof of the American House
barn. Wo could seo Charles from that
position from his bead down to his'
waist. He was a large man, weighing
200 pounds, and had a very thick neck.
When tho drop foil the rope slipped
over bis head and ho foil. In about
three minutes thoy hud him up again,
when he oooly asked for a drink of
water, which was given him. Tbo ropo
was readjusted, tho black cap pulled
over his eyes, and the drop foil. In
two hours the body was turned over to
his fathor and brothors, who took it
away in a two-horse hack. Chase was
burled near Karthaus. W. T. Cox,
Sandy Valley, Pa., March 3, 1902.
Over The Phone.
Printed Instructions should be Issued

following suggestions:
When speaking to a man use your
natural volco, full, emphatic and dis
tinct. When speaking to a lady modu
late it Into a sweet, coaxing tonu'and
say something pleasant on tho sldo.
Don't talk love by wire. Inductions
may carry your "soft answers" to othor
ears than those for which thoy are In
tended. In talking speak Into tho phono. The
llstnor may not have long distance ears.
Omit nasal tones as much as possible.
If your name Is John Smith, say so.
You need not bother about giving out
the information that you are "Mr.
Smith."
Do not uttor unkind words about tho
llttlo lady who docs tho switching at
