confined since his return to thia country following hist arrest in Canada The condemned man who throughout his trial and even until Home Secretary Churchill had refused a petition for his reprieve had maintained an imperturbable calmness presented a pitia'riio appearance as he was literally 1-1 throughout the short corridor from his cell to the scaffold His mental anguish had been too great to is? covered up by outward bravado and it was a -broken man whom the wardens were obliged to aa-rit up th steps to the drop upon which nce reached the shrinkling figure a'l hut collapsed The first report

before he had positively refused to seo anyone other than his keepers Solicitor Newton Miss Ie Neve and Father Carey Accordingly the testimony of only these persons would appear to be of weight in throwing light on the condemned man's last hours This morning Pillowing the execution the prison authorities issued an official statement dfclarlng that no confession had ln made Miss Neve denies that Crippen confessed His attorney says that so far as lie knows Ids client maintained Ids innocence to the end What was said to the priest preceding absolution cannot of course be known If Crippen
