MAYOR HAMMOCK, rHEMDIBO. The first case taken np was that of Mell Wellborn, charged with using profane language and drunken ness. Continued. Daa Shehaoe, for being disorderly and using pro- , was fined one dollar and coats. He Oa the afternoon of the Sth of September, 1871, two eu met on the corner of Broad and Marietta streets. There hid been some bad blood between them, owing t tome litigation over sashes in the Justices Court. One of the men was L B. O'Neal, the murderer; the other was James Little, hie victim. THK CRIME. The two met on ihe street and had some words on the subject of their differences. An altercation arose between them. There was a struggle. A knife, sharp of edge and formidable, gleamed in O’Neal’s hand. The next instant it was plunged in Little’s abdomen, and a terrible gash followed; a stream of blood flowed upon the sidewalk; a man fell; a crowd gathered. The deed was done; another murder had been com mitted in Atlanta. This is the story of the killing given in brief. James Little was carried home, there to die in great agony; O’Neal was conducted to jail, there to await his trial. THK TRIAL AND CONVICTION. An impartial jury was empanelled and able counsel defended the accused. An endeavor was made io show that the act was perpetrated in self defense, but the evidence for the prosecution satitfied the jury that there waa malice, and that the killing was premedi tated. O’Neal bore an unfavorable reputation. He said to be a desperate man, who had once before stabbed aud nearly killed another man in the same way. On the other hand Little bore the character of being a peaceable, quiet man. So after weighing well the evidence on both sides, the jury brought In a verdict of murder in the first drgree, and O’Neal was sentenced to death. NO HOPK. An appeal,was taken to the Supreme Court, and that tribunal sArmed the judgment of the jury. How the grief-stricken wife of the convict tried to obtain a commutation of the sentence aud failed, the reader is already aware. We need not recapitulate. “ There is no hope, O’Neal; you must die!” With a vcica broken from emotion, the sad news was imparted to the convict. A shudder, a wild, despairing cry of agony, and a passionate flood of tears followed the announcement. CLINGING TO LIFE. O’Neal bad clung to life with the tenacity of a mother’s love for her babe. He could see no future beyond the grave. To him death was a hideous phan tom ; life a paradise. For many weary months Rsv. Mr. Patillo had been visiting him, endeavoring to teach him the story of the Cross, and to show him that bejond the river there was hope and light- Bat O'Neal waa, for all practical purposes, deaf to the les son. He listened respectfully; now aud then he made efforts to seem interested; but the man's mind bad BUT ONE THOUGHT. It was life. He was but thirty-two years of age, and the world was too sweet for him to leave it. He would not believe that Gov. Smith would refuae to pardon him, or to commute hia eentence. Had not another O’Neal been snatched from the gallows? And thus when the good minister told him of the thief up- the cross ; of how he was transported to Heaven be cause he repented ; of bow there was peace and happi nesa in tbe hereafter, O’Neal had but one response and it waa life. The darkest and most dismal dungeon was preferable to death—an eternity of physical suffer ing was welcome ; but not the grave. A PRATES FOR A RESPITE. We have never known s condemned men cling so fiercely to life. Even after hie counsel's letter was rend to him, be would not abandon hope. Amid his tears and lamentations he imploied Mr. Patillo to onco more call upon the Governor in h s behalf. This time it was for a respite. All he wanted now was a few more days ou earth—a few days to prepare himself for his mysterious journey to the Great Unknown. The min ister complied with his request, although feeling that be was on a hopeless mission. Governor Smith de clined to interfere ; and even after this refusal was made known to him, O’Neal would not reconcile him self to bis isle. HIS LAST NIGHT. It was late at night when he threw himself on kis pallet and fell asleep. His slumber waa restless and short. Menial anxiety bad told upon the man. He was swollen with dropsy, and disease added to bis mental condition had dazed his mind. Befors day break he was awake and pacing his narrow cell, be ing his fate, and declaring that be was a victim to persecution. Breakfast was brought to him, but ha refused to eat. His first call waa for the Herald. Poor creature! he probably thought this paper would contain some joy ous news for him. •‘Ha* the Hf.rald come yet?” he aeked. “let me see it.” “You keep hanging on to that 0—4 d—n Herald,” exclaimed Malone from another cell, “and you will h>ng to a d—d rope socu.” O'Neal took the paper and read it through. Every word concerning his case was devoured. Tbe more be read the more despairing he became, and when he bed railed to discover the sentence which averted his fate, he threw the paper aside and gave way to a tor rent of grief. _ O’Neal advanoed with outstretched arms to weleoHse her. frith a cry of mingled agony aad affecUn, she fan into his embrace, and for ihe last time mve one, the arms of the husband encircled the wife. a sed, a touching spectacle. From tbe recess of the cell came the passionate voice of grief. The ooavict, hie wife and her sisters mingled their tears John Wise, with quivering lip and moist stood leaning agalut the door, contemplating the TO god. The first transport of sorrow over. O’Neal held a last conversation with his wife. Woman-like, all Mrs. O'Neal’s thoughts were for him. She begged him to banish from his mind all thoughts of her, and to turn to Gcd for mercy and salvation. Her sisters also horted him to penitence and prayer. ONCE MORE TO LITE. Becoming calmer and more composed. O'Neal talked about his case. Once more and for the last time, he looked to life. He arked his wife if she did not think that it she was to viait Governor Smith that day he would grant a respite. Bev. Mr. Patillo interposed, assuring him that such an application would be uaelesa and begging him again to abandon all hopes of life on earth. O’Neal then said : •* What kind of a man is Governor Smith ? Did he not commute Tom O’Neal’s eentence although he de liberately blew out a man’s brains with a pistol? Why does he let me die, then?” The good minister, together with Mr*. O’Neal and Miss Houghton again besought him to reconcils him self to his God. HIS MOTHER’S RING. O'Neal, with a groan and a shudder, dismissed the last, lingering hope from his mind. He spoke with comparative calmness to his wife; said that he believed he would go to Heaven, and begged her to conduct herself through life that when she died her spirit would join him in the better aud happier land* Taking a ring from bis fiDger he placed it on her’*. It given him by his mother, and he desired his wife to take it find keep it. He asked that his remains might be sent to Conyers’ and buried beside hi* mother, of whom ho spoke with much sffectiou aud •motion. HE CONTEMPLATED SUICIDE. . Referring to his approaching fate, he said that he could have cheated the gallows, for he had poison in bis possession, and that he had contemplated suicide. On one side of him had been the devil urging him to take his own life; on the other side, God had been commanding him not to do so. God being strongest, had triumphed, and he would go to the gallows. PARTINO OF HUSBAND AND WIFE. Thus the minutes sped in comparatively tranquil converse. Only now and then was the quiet broken by a wail of grief. But the hardest and the bitterest mo ment was fast approaching. It came at length at half past eleven o’clock. The little group in the cell had been temporarily increased by the arrival of Rev. Mr. Dickey, of the Methodist Church, and Rev. Mr. Jones, of tho Presbyterian. A whisper, and tbe part ing moment had come. One loud, hoarse shriek of agony told how completely unmanned O’Neal was. Again the corridor of the jail resounded with the cries of the anguished man and women. One last, lingering embrace. O’Neal clasped tbe half fainting woman to his breast and held her there, as if in that brief interval had welled up to his heart fill the love he had ever borne her. When she was ta ken from his arms be grasped her hands and clung to her, shrieking with agony. It waa a bitter parting, and all the spectators were moved to tears. Support ed by Wise, Mrs. O'Neal was conducted from the cell. Her listers came after her—nevermore again to look upon him in this life. She passed on, her sonl filled with ineffable tenderness for him who was so soon to expiate his crime upon the gallows. A thrill of pity passed through all who aaw her as she waa half car ried down the atreet to her hniuble home, rendered now more desolate than ever. ALONE. At a quarter before 12 o’clock Mr. Patillo retired and O’Neal was left alone in his cell to attire himself for his going to the gallows. Alone! How many thoughts flatbed across his heated brain, who can tell? How many vain regrets and bitter self upbraidlogs; how many mental declarations thst if he could eecape,never moro would he place himself in such a position—what agony, what remorse, tbe judgment day alone veal. There was not much to do aud he waa quickly dreaed. Now it waa that he seemed really to turn to God for help. He knelt beside tbe cot, and resting his head upon his hands, prayed in silence. Again and again did Wise step to tbe door of the cell and look in, and each time be returned it was with the report that he was praying. Oh God, grant thst he was and that his prayer was heard! THE LAST PRAYER. Kev. Mr. patillo returned to me cell at about quarter before 1 o’clock. Tbe reverend gentleman waa extremely anxious concerning the spiritual condi tion of O’Neal. He had worked earnestly and faith fully to instill into his mind all the beautiful and sav ing tenets of Christianity; bnt the t 'rrible clinging to an earthly life and the intense honor of death mani- feated by O'Neal, had made him fearful that the soul of .the convict would paas into the presence of its Maker unrepentant and unprepared. He, therefore, went back to O’Neal to strive again to prepare him for his last journey. Mr. Patillo renewed his exhorta tions with redoubled earnestness, and implored the convict to make his peace with God. Kneeling beside him, he prayed to the Siviour to fill his heart with penitence, and to receive him in heaven. The fervor an I pathos of the minister had tbe desired effect at length, and O’Neal joined in the prayer with sincerity and earnestness. “HIS TIME IS COMING.” It was half past one o’.lock when Whit Anderson opened tbe door leading to the basemeut, walked through the office and entered the private apartments of the jail. Whit was pale and nervous. Presently he returned with a coil of rope in one hand and a package containing a shroud in tbe other. As he reappeared a shudder passed through tbe who are walking the streets of Atlanta to-day are moca guilty of murder than I am, but they have money.

Tbe worda of commis- seration which Under-hearted John Wise spoke to him. were unheeded. He could think only of the gallows, and how to escape it. THE MINISTERS WITH HIM. At about a quarter before ten o’clock, Reverends Mr. Leftwich and Mr. Patillo arrived and entered hie cell. They knelt betide him and offered up prayers for his aoul. They implored* him to abandon all thoughU of life on this earth, and look only towards the life of the future. O’Neal seemed touched. True, he still reverted to what he regarded aa hia hard ship#. He would speak of his persecutors, and insist that justice had not been done him; and again and again he would epeak aa if there still remained a lingering hope of commuUtion of hia sentence. Still, ras lets of that cl to Ring to life which had characterized him on the day before, appeared to be awakening to a realizing sense of the gravity of his situation. He joined in the prayers, and asked God to forgive him for his sins. No sooner was prayer over than ha would begin again to talk about la case, and to complain of the action of Governor The ministers, however, would, by gehtle words aad exhortations, lead him hock to tho one great question which could only concern him—hie spir itual sal-ration.| HIS WIFE. ‘His time id coming” said some one. A SHUDDER. There was a general reference to watches. Every face grew pole and anxious, and there was probably not one man present who would not have stayed the execution had he possessed the power. It was not that any thought O’Neal deserving of mercy ; but it was a human life about to be taken, and even while all knew the punlshment.all shrunk from the contempla tion of Its infliction. RECONCILED TO OOD. From the cell came voices Hinging. It was a sweet, plaintive hymn. O’Neal began with his spiritual sd- viser.but he soon broke down and the remaining lines were sung alone by Mr. Patlilo. Not a sound was board save that of the miniatcr’s voice, and the music roee and swelled through the open spaces of the corri dors, into tbe office and returned into the open air. The hymn over, there was a brief interval of alienee, broken st length by a last prayer. O’Neal eat down near the door of his cell and read the Scriptures with the clergyman for some time. Let us hope that in this suspense moment all of sin and of crime passed out of him and left bis spirit cleansed and regenerated. THE VIKITOBH. Tbe hour for carrying oat the mandate of the law had arrived. 8beriff Ptrkeraon, with a serious and I countenance, entered. A few whispered words, and the police and vial tors, to the number of about forty, filed down the steps, through the base ment and to the yard, at tbe end of which tbe gallows was srected. As they walked along the yard, some looked up to tbe iron-barred windows of the cells. Through one window was seen a small looking-glaas, held by a hand, every finger ot which was perfectly formed, the nails long and clean. It was Kelly, the condemned murderer, trying to catch a glimpse of tha outside world. LEAVING HU CELL. Precisely-at 2 o’clock the iron bolt* of the cell doors were driven back, and O’Neal waa taken out. Sup ported by Rev. Mr. Patillo and Deputy Sheriff Green, and followed by Sheriff Perkerson and others, he was conducted to the yard, and thonce to the gallows. His face, swollen by dropsy, was ashy pale, but bis stop was comparatively firm, and he did not exhibit iy evidence of trepidation. He was attired in a pair of light pantaloons, with vest to match, but wore no In this disconnected way he went on for a few minutes longer. He spoke slowly and deliberately, pausing between his sentences as if to weigh well his words. The whole harden of his argument was thst he was not guilty of murder. A MISTAKE CORRECTED. Resuming his seat, as he whispered a few words to Mr. Patillo, and then he said, still seated, that he wished to correct a mistake of his which had appeared in the Herald. Mr. Grady had been to see him the previous night, and he (O’Neal) had said that when the prisoners escaped he had goae to the door. This •rong. He should have said that he could have gone to the door of the jail if he had desired it. O’Neal seemed desirous of raying something more about the jail delivery and the making of the key, but Mi. Patillo advised him to dismiss the subject, and address his thoughts to God. THE CROWD WITHIN AND WITHOUT. Around the Jail several hundreds of persons had gathered. They had clattered sround tbe fence, peep ing through the slender openings; but as soon as the convict had left his sell a cordon of police was formed, which drove them back to a respectable dis tance from tbe wooden wall. Many then ascended to tho brow of the hill; others climbed ad jacent trees and roofs of houses, and thus got a glimpse of the execution; but beyond this, the dread sentence of the law was carried out privately as or* dered by Judge Hopkins. In the yard, the thirty or forty spectators looked on nervous and rad. ON THE BRINE. The rands of life were fast running out. Sheriff Perkerson, pale and with visible emotion, proceeded to execute bis order. He conducted O'Neal to the front of the gallows, beneath the rope. His arms and feet were pinioned. While this was doing, the convict asked Perkerson to cut the ropes from off his arms, legs and neck, as soon as possible after he was dead, which promise the humane Sheriff faithfully kept. long white shroud was next placed around O’Neal's form, and then came the last sad work. AN UNINTENTIONAL WITTICISM. The noose was slipped over his neck, and aided by Deputy Sheriff Green, Sheriff Perkerson drew the knot close to the neck. “Is it uncomfortable V” asked the Sheriff. “No,” waa the reply, “not tow; but it will be comfortable in a few seconds.” This was said reverently and sadly, withe ut any idea of the ghastly witticism of the words. ONE MOMENT OF TERROR. Up to this time O’Neal's conduct had been brave. He had evidently nerved himself for the occasion When, however, the rope encircled his neck, his limbs trembled and his face quivered with agony for a brief moment. Still, the tremor did not last a second passed away as quickly ss it came, and left him calm aud motionless. Indeed, the man seemed scarcely conscious of his surroundings. His eyes were dull and glazed, and it looked as if bis mind was wandering. A LAST DECLARATION. Just os Perkerson was about to draw the cap ovei his face, O’Neal requested a moment’s time to say a w more words. Looking at the crowd, he said: These ore my lost words. I did not mean to kil Little. Iam not guilty of murder. I hope God has fergiven me, and that he will receive me in Heaven.” A few more words to the same effect, and be ceased. Then turning to Sheriff Perkerson, he announced that he was ready. “OH, GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME!” While standing waiting for the rope to be placed around his neck, he had kept his eyes closed, and now again he closed them. The white cap was then drawn over his face, concealing his features. It was a trying moment for all. Every breath was stayed with horrible expectation. Many faces were turned away, and deep motion waa perceptible in all. From behind the white cap came the word*, uttered in loud, beseeching tones: “Oh, God, have mercy upon me! “Oh, Lord, rave my soul! “Oh, God, have pity upon me ! “Oh, Lord, ” HANGED. There was a quick emotion of Sheriff Perkerson’* hand, then Whit AndersoD, seated on the steps and holding the handle of the trap, sprung It. “Oh. Lord A sudden crash, and the trap fell. A dull thud, and the body of I. B. O’Neal was dangling from the beam. There was scarcely a struggle. One convulsive move ment of the bands, a slight tremor of the limbs, and it was over. The neck was broken by the fall and hence death came rapidly and painlessly. PERKERSON OVERCOME. As he fell, the spectators turned their heads aside, sickened. Perkerson was completely overcome. He leaned against the steps of the scaffold, and wept freely. Natnrallv os tender-hearted as a child, he had only performed the duty because he was compelled Io perform it. More than one man present sobbed. It was a terrible thing to witness the legal killing of a fellow being. DIED IN TWELVE MINUTES. It was exactly twenty-aix minutes beiore J o’clock when the drop fell. Eight minutes later Drs. John son and Logan examined the body. A slight move ment of the chest wao all that outwardly indicated life. The doctors could not find any pulse, but the heart still beat feebly. Two minutes later there was the merest flutter of the heart, and two min utes later all was still. In twelve minutes after tire drop fell the last vital spark bad fled, aud in fifteen minutes he was lormally pronounced dead and cut down. The execution was, in every tense ot the word, admirably conducted, and 8heriff Perkerson and his Deputies deserve praise for the manner in which they performed their melancholy duty. O’Neal could not have experienced tbe slightest pain. SENT TO CONYERS. The body, after being cat down, wa* prepared lor interment. It wm placed iu a coffin and tent to Cony yesterday eveoiug, for lutermsut beside the grave of the convict's mother. GONE—W UITHKB? It was the belirf of Dr. Patillo that O’Neal, at the last, was truly penitent and prayerful. May God grant that he was. He certainly died appealing to Him for mercy and salvation, and let us pray that the ap peal waa hearkened to. PUUCEED1NU8 OP COUNCIL. r General Glean's ergu- ■M. th. CM. WM Mbaittte is tb.
