Besides the confession Gillette had a word to say to the young men of the world. This was in a communication that was handed to Warden Benham as follows: “In the shadow of the valley of death it is my desire to do everything that would remove any doubt as to my having found Jesus Christ, the per-|§ sonal Saviour and unfailing friend. My one regret, at this time, is that T have not given Him the pre-eminence | in my life while I had the opportunity to work for Him. If I could only say some one thing that would draw young men to Him I would deem it the great- est privilege ever granted me. But all I can say now is I know in whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day. - “There is not one thing I have left undone which will bar me from fac- ing my God, knowing that my sins are forgiven, for I have been free and frank in my talks with' my spiritual advisers and God knows where I stand.” KILLS WOMAN AND HIMSELF Jealousy Supposed Cause of Double Tragedy.
