Hangman Billiogton entored the coll & fow minutes be fore U and with assistants fastened a leather belt around the condemned man's waist Straps from this sccurely pinioned his arms at the elbows and Neill submitted without uttering a word. ssion to the formed, ivaded by the lowed by the chaplain sorvice, Neill came next with a warden on eithor side. e waived firmly, though & donthly pallor oversproad bis fazo which, however, stowed no other sizns of ewotion. ‘I'he hangman brought up the r.

The hangman’s assistant thon pinioned Neill's legs and the uoose was adjusted avound the neck. The exccutioner stepped back, pressed a lever and Neill fell ffve f into a pit. 1 The were convulsive twitchirgs of tho muscles for a few seconds aud then the body lung motionless, Doath was evideutly in- antancous and painless.

A resume of the cvents that led to his arrest and triaion tho cuarge of wilful murder is, therefore, given. On _the nuight of Avril 11, last, two cirls named Alico Marsh and Immwa Shrivell, aged, respectively, 21 and 15 years, received & man in their apartments at 115 St. Hanford strect, Lambeth, This man remained with the girls until 2 o'clock mext mornine. Shortly after he left the house the two girls were found in agony on tho floor by the landlady of ihe premises, Mrs. Voght. Tue girls belonged to the unfortunate class, and an ofticer was notified and thoy were re- moved to St. Thomas’ hospital. The Marsh girl died on the way to the hospital and the Shrivell girl died three hours after she was aamitted. i 1t was thought at first that tho girls had boen powsozed by canned sulmon, of which they bad partaken, but it was subsequontly learned that they had been poisoucd with strychnine. On examining the rooms occu- pied by tho givls a lettor was found, dated April 10, nccepting an_fnvi to tako tea wilth them next night. This letter was signed George Clifton, but it afterwards transpired thut the writer was known to the girls as Fred. No trace of the author of | the lotter could be found, and for a time tho onse was referred to as the “Lambeth mys- tery.” When the matter of the death of the two girls came before tne coroner for invesiiga- tion that official reccived a letter, which was provea to have been 1n the hand ogof a woman named Sabbatina, whom Neill was at one time engaged to marry. In this letter the writer said sho was in u position to give valuablo information, which would show that the two girls had heen poisoned by & young man named Harper, Tried fis Hand at Biackmall, Tne letter was placed in tho hands of the police, and from irquiries that were Insti- tuted, they discovered that abou. the samo time the coroner had received tho letter, Dr. Harper of Barnstaple bad aiso received a letter, admitted o have been sent by Neill, in which ho demanded the sum of $1,500, and intimating that unless the sum was paid the writer would give iuformation showing that Dr, Harper's son had polsoned tho girls. Young Harper was at that time a student at St. Thomas’ hospital and lodged i the samo house in Lambeth with Neill, On the ctarge of attemptea b forrod ogainst him by Dr. Harpe arrested. Consiaerable interest fested in the case and it was increased when & newspaver published a story to the effect that a pirl named Matilda Clover had died in Octover, 151, uuder almost tne samo cireum- stances us attended the aeaths of the Marsh and Shrivell girls. 1t was supposed at tho time of the Clover givi’s death that she had committed suicide, The body was exhumed and an analysis of tho viscora revealod the prosence of strychnive, ‘I'he peculiar manner of tho death of these three girls called attention to the fact that another girl, named kllen Denworth, had died under suspicious circumstances, und further {uvestigation by the police revenled thau Dr. Harper was not the only person Neill had tried to blackmail. 1t was learned that ho had written letters 1o Dr. Broadbent, 8 well known Loadon practitioner, to Hon. W. F. D. Smith, son of the late Rt. Hon, W, H. Swmith, and t Countess Russell, who, during the of her sut’ for a sepnration from hor hbusband, Russell, in December, 1501, had received a letter, alloged 10 bave been written by Nelll, accusing the earl of baviug nolsoned the Clover girl. In the letter to Dr. Broadbent the physioian was also accused of poisoning her, whilo Mr. Smith, in the letter ha received, was accused of administering sirvchnine to the Denworth girl. Itshould be borne In mind that at the e these lettors wero sent uo onosuspected ibat either the Clover or Denworth girls bud been poisoned and that this fuct, and the fact that tie pad attempted to blackmail others, weore ouly learned subsequent to the arrest of Neill” for uttemptiog to blackmail Dr, Harp r. mail, pre- y Nelll was was ani- Life and Antecedents, ‘Dhe police, Lafore thls, haa awakened fo the fuct that Neill was @ most important prisoner, and a close investigution was made of his prior life and autecedents, They found thut Neill was an Amerlcan, and bo apuears to have been st ouo time, & student atthe St howas uospital, Ho cidme to Eogland in 5 plomber of last year, and ullimately took spartments in the Lataboth lace road, which ha ocewpied from Sevtember, 1801, to January, 1502, He then WOnL aw: intimating that nhe was going back Lo America.

Tno body of a young woman was found in a shed back of Neill's office, and a post mortom ex- amination showed that she had aled from the effects of a criminal operation. Though the people wore mortally certain that Neill haa performed tho operation, thers was not logal evidence enough to warrant his arrest. Public opinion, however, forced bim to leave Kingston, and he went' .to Hamilton, Ont.
