Reginald Birchall Hanged for the Murder of F. C. Benwell at Woodstock. WOODSTQCK, Nov. 14.—The murder 'of Frederick 0. Benwell has been avenged. Reginald Birehall was exe- coed on the scaffold in the yard of Woodstoc-k gaol this morning at about 8.21. He died without confessing, not even alluding in public to his crime, He made no speech or remark of any kind after getting into the gaol yard., save a casual one to the executioneer. He maintained his nerve throughout, and but for a ghastly pallor gave no evidence of the emotion within his breast. From, beginning to end he did not flinch or lose his self-possession. lle 'died bravely, and as'he said het. would die. • The day was bright and beautifulL. The yarn of death4ay 'in the shadow of the ohl gaol, and ,only on one corner of it could the sunlight fall at this early hour. The scaffold was in the shadow and the whole yard appeared gloomy chid frightful,.. contrasted with the briehtness thatieigned without. Birchall .seenied indifferent to. the crowd of Aiiectators. His gaze was directed principally towards thedread- ful gallows and only occasionally did he meet the eyes of the onlookers, though those of all present were bent with a terrible Anxiousness and intent- ness upon him. When their eyes met he never quailed. He preserved to the last look a .stony determination not to 'break down, and this was •the express- ion -on his face When the hangman drew the black cap down over it and hid it from view. At 8.23 o'clock the prisoner's arms were strapped behind his back, and thenthe awful march to 'death began towards the jail yard. First came the Rural Dean Wade, behired .him Dr. Ohaniberlain, followed by A. D. Stewart and Deputy-Sheliff Perry. The ' prisoner came next, 'deathly pale, but resolute, l'iis step was steady. His jet Week hair and •moustache:anode the, pallor of his fa0 ,like Marble. • • • • Day -guard Perry and Mr. Leethain walked on each side, holding Birchall's arms. The principal actors in the tragedy stopped with their charge about fifteen feet • from the gallows. Inthe eyes of the black -haired, white- faced young man standing on the threshold ot eternity there was nota trace of •thefrivolity that has lightened hie impr.csoninent. Time was not a hunted look,nor was.there any fear in his eyes, ,but 'a fixed purpose that seemed to consinneles reason. At the word t "Dust. to dust," in the service Birchall slep.ped firmly forward ,.and todk his plaee wider the. scaffold. He took Leethare's baud iri Ins and the friends kissed each other under the gallows. • rho executioner put a strap around .the reisoner's kegs, just above his knees. When the Rural Dearrasti- Lered upon-- the Is'ircl's prayer, the hangman steppe& forward •and placed the black cap inpeSitioe anti adjusted the noose.. At 8.27 the words "D - liver us from vif" gave the signal, and the ,exectioner putline a small rope released the weight, which then fell to 'the ground, jerking the hotly into the air about ti VO feet. Convulsions eorn- menced half a minute atter falling of weight, but they were not all t.iole.nt, and ceased no' six mirages. At 8:35 life was pronounced, to be extinct. — Lanes , The fine weather of Cite past few Weeks ,;has enabled farnaers to house and', secure the root crop in good shape.

Reid, to James Alton, of Belfast- The ceremony was conducted by the Rev. Dr. Strongman, of Luck - now. After the knotohad been tied • the tables were spread with.a bounti fel repast. The toast of the 'evening was proposed by Dr. Strongman and responded to by Mr. Robt..Aarrion. Aborit one hundred and eighty guests were preset -it -alter tea the evening was spent in social games, and • ffraSiC both 'vocal and •instruniental. At about 4:30 the party dispersed, all seeming to have had enjoyed them - 'selves.
