Leine Kipp, • _- - Thu neighbors were scandalised and the women decided that the 'wedding should not take place. At the appointed hour the magistrate appeared. The couple General News, stood up and the squire started to ask the would-be.grcom the usual questions. Before be could anatvsr the door's were thrown open and some 50 women and 25 men tiled in and notified the party that the wedding was ole, and after explaua• Hone the magistrate refused to proceed. ' A bucket of tar with feather trimmings convinced :Mrs. Funk that she didn't' really want to marry. Kipp had even stronger convictions and not only agreed with Aire. Funk bit promised he never would marry her and would leave the vicinity permanently. Deeming, the wife murderer, was hang' d at one minute past ten o'clock lfonday morning ,m'lelbenrne, Auatraa t. With the exenation of Deeming there ended the life of one of the greatest criminals the world has ever seen. The stories of his many crimes must still be so well remembered by the public as to need no repetition. Deeming passed Sunday in writing, calmly (hemming at intervals his approaching doom. He said he had no intention of making a speech on the scaffold. On Sunday night ire thrice eweliowe l eagerly of a small allowance of spirits, after which he slept smartly until he was awakened at 7 Ilion• they morning. Then, for the first time since his arrest, the manacles on bis wrists were removed, and smoking it cigar, he conversed with those around him. He declared that he was resigned to his fate and batt no fears in regard to the future. To the Governor of the prison he said that he had made his peace with God. He persisted in deny. mg that he was guilty of the i',aiuhill murders. He had never, he declared, lost his self control in England, as he had since he arrived in Australia. He ex- pressed gratitude to the Governor and all the prison oflictalsfor the consideration they had shown him, and also to Mr. Lyle, his counsel, and to all concerned in his defense. He said be thought he would not falter or make any scene on the scaffold. On the arrival of the hang. man and the Deputy Governor at the doomed man's cell Deeming was praying fervently, repeating again end again "Lord have mercy on my soul." He continued muttering a prayer as he was led to the scaffold. He wore a sap which partially shaded his face from view. A few moments before the time set for the exeoutiou Deeming was allowed a glass of brandy, which he swallowed at one gulp, and he was told that he might have more if the prison doctor so ordered. The doomed man was then led to the gal- lows, and in a few moments all woe over. The drop was seven feet. The execution was witnessed by a large gathering, in• chiding Gove nineut and civil officials, magistrates, police and clergymen. Tho doctors are very anxious to procure Deeming's brain for examination to de - aide the question of his sanity, but the Government will not permit them to make any post-mortem investigations. 1'P1 D:11', ALAI' 37, 1893.
