D. SACKETT,
THE STORY OF A REMARKABLE CRIME.
SHOOTING THE FAVORED SUITOR OF
THE GIRL HE LOVED.
Springfield, Mass. \ J uno 27, 1 873.
Albert H. Smith was hanged in the jail yard
in this city this morning for the fatal shooting
of Charles D. Saekett in Westfield on the
evening of the 20th of Novembe r last At the
time of the shooting, Saekett was escorting
home from a theatrical performance Miss Jen
nie Bates, daughter of a well-to-do farmer of
Westfield. Saekett, who was a bachelor of
about 40, had lor some time bees paying at
tention to Miss Bates, and about a month be
fore the shooting they had become engaged.
As they approached her father’s house on the
fatal evening they were confronted by Smith,
who, coming out of a neighbor’s yard, drew
a revolver and

mourning. Tho most estimable gentleman,

struck Miss Bates, one inflicting
wound in the back of the head, another Y
ing in the right hand, and the third hitting
her in the temple. Her wounds, however,
though serious, were not dangerous. The
single shot which Smith lodged in the body
of Saekett, was more eflicacions, though the
wounded man did not at first appreciate the
extent of hh injuries, assisting his betrothed
to her home before he even discovered that he
was hurt himself. Noticing then some blood
on his shirt bosom, he found that a bullet had
entered his right breast. Saekett was remov
ed to his own house the next day, and for
gome little time his recoven' seemed probable.
But the ball proved lo have lodged in the right
lung, whence it was impossible to remove it,
inflammation set io, and on Tues&J, Decem
ber 3, thirteen days after the shooting, he
died.
A DISCARDED LOVER’S REVENGE.
Mach as tbe community was shocked by
the news of Smith’s murderous attack, there
were not a few persons who were in a meas
ure prepared for it by having heard his re
peated threats to injure Saekett. Smith was
a lover of Miss Bat c s, and during the previ
ous summer had for a time enjoyed her favor.
But when in the early fall Saekett, whom she
had known before her family came to West-
field. renewed his suit, Smith’s attentions,
which culminated in repeated requests that
she would be his wife, became distasteful to
her, and she at last quite repelled him. When
Smith learned that his rival was to be suc
cessful in obtaining the woman, he bccamo
infuriated against him. and on the fatal eve
ning told a cumber of persons that he was
going to shoot him, Immediately after
emptying bis revolver Smith walked leisurely
to the depot, and then, taking the usual track,
went on foot toward West Springfield, where
he was living at the time. He was arrested at
12:30 that night while asleep in bed, and was
taken to Westfield io irons.
THE TRIAL AND SENTENCE.
Ou the death of his victim. Smith was in
dicted for murder in the first degree, was tried
at the April term of the Supreme Court, and
fonnd guilty as indicted. On Monday, May
5, Smith was taken into court for sentence.
Being asked by Chief Justice Chapman whe
ther he had anything to say why sentence
should not be prononneed, Smith surprised
the audience by rising and thus addressing
the Jndge: “I have nothing to say, sir, for it
don’t concern me.” The Chief Justice then
imposed the penalty which the law prescribes,
the time for its execution being left to the
Governor and Council. The latter at a meet
ing on the 20th of May appointed the 27th of
June as tbe fatal day.
PREFERRING DEATH TO LIFE WI HOLT JENNIE.
Since his sentence Smith has exhibited an
indifference as to his fate, frequently declar
ing that he preferred to die rather than live
without Jennie Bates. In an interview last
night, he said:*
The nearer my end drew to roe, the happier
aud more contented I feel. If my sentence
was commuted at last and I was to be sen
tenced for life, why, with these feelings upon
iny mind, I am sure, sir, that in less than six
months I should be a raving maniac—for this
feeling for the girl that is on me, with snch a
power, I know it would drive me mad to re
move me from her. Therefore I long for the
trouble that is on my mind, for life to me is a
burden, to die is gain. (Taking a photograph
of Miss Bates from the bed.) There hain’t
been a night since I had that picture here but
what I have had it placed under my pillow
»nd I have laid for hours talking with it, and
I have got nearly as much comiort out of it
as if she were here. But I would rather see
her face in person. As to my situation, I
don’t feel fear of it. All that 1 wait for flow
is to see her after I die. As to my future I
feel prepared. All thAt I shed tears for now
is for her that I may see her. If 1 cannot see
ner in this life I can in the life to cooie; and
there is no time, sir, that I have uttered a
prayer since I have been in here that I don't
offer one for her.
He mftde the most minute arrangements as
to tbe disposition of his body &Dd its trans
portation to Baltimore, the city of his birth.
He even named the pall bearers to accompany
his body to the depot.
smith’s OON7UUOS.
Tbe following is an abstract of Smith’s con
fession :
It was on that fatal twentieth of November
night when I went to Westfield to see Jennie,
not knowing that she was at the theater at
the time. I started up to her bon.se, but on
the way I fonnd oat she and Saekett had gone
to the theater. There I was, and felt like one
that could die, and all the feelings that ever
animated a human breast was in mine. I
was like one that was mad, andjin fact I mast
have been partly so from what was said in the
trial against me. I know nothing alter that
hour Saekett was with Jennie. I know not
of what Boderay or the two night watchmen
said that I did at the depot All is new to
me. If I was in the condition they say I
was, as a wild or crazy man, I remember of
my meeting Jennie and Saekett together on
tbe sidewalk. Then, as a wild mun, still, I
shot down Saekett, but as for the shooting of
the girl I will say and always have said it was
through an accident. When I heard she was
shot I felt sorry, and I had shed many a tear
lor her because she was shot by me. I knew
not what I was about or doing.
THE HANGING. |
About 10 o'clock this morning private reli
gious services were held at the residence of
the Sheriff, when Smith offered an earnest
prayer in his own behalf. Subsequently the
usual religions ceremonies took place in tho
jail. The hymn commencing: “Jesus, lover
of my soal,” was sang, and Smith, after
mounting tbe scaffold, made a brief speech,
io which he reaffirmed his story of the killing
of Saekett. He said he had no malice against
Saekett, and if Saekett had quit going with
his girl, as he promised, there would have
been no trouble. He manifested an almost
stoic calmness on the scaffold, never wincing
for a moment, and died without a struggle.
His remains were sent this afternoon to Balti
more, where he formerly resided. Tho exca
tion was witnessed by about one hundred and
fifty persons.
A ‘‘Billy Henderson.”
A LITTLE STORY FROM ARKANSAS.
Augusta (Ark.) Bulletin
“Once upon a time,” as the nursery tales
have it, that is, some time last winter, an in
terestinp youth, apparently fifteen or sixteen
years of age, came to Augosta and soon fonnd
employment. A clear complexion, oval face,
fall, liquid eyes oC Wfie. triaged wriri long
dark lashea that might grace a Spanish beau
ty; flaxen hair, whose wavy lines eould not bo
repressed—such golden locks as William the
Conqueror or “Harold, the last of the Saxon
Kings,” might have envied; a foot that would
fill nothing larger than a No. 4 boot, and a
small, plump, dimpled hand, with delicately
tapered fingers, and a figure lithe yet sym
metrical, round yet not voluptuous—such
was Billy Henderson, as be flashed upon onr
community last winter. He was employed in
the telegraph office, in the hotel, in the drag
store, aud made a good impression generally.
At the hotel the cook assaulted him, and this
aroused much indignation among onr citizens.
Being without a protector, a most estimable
citizen persuaded hin W apply tg the County
Court and have a guardian appointed for him.
winter—they were all disconsolate when they (
fonnd Billy had gono “where tho woodbine ;
twine th.”
It seems that Billy remained at Jacksonport I
several months in a livery stable, learning to :
ride bareback as other boys do. But last (
week he and another boy rode two of the j
livery horses so far from Jacksonport, and
remained away so long, that the owner of the !
horses deemed it best to go in pursuit of
them. They were overtakeu and brought
back to Jacksonport, and Billy Henderson,
the handsome blonde boy of sixteen, turns !
out to be Miss Nancy Henderson. Imagina- j
tion may paint, but language can never de- ;
scribe the sensation produced in our little
town on hearing of this. Messages have been
flashed across the wires, and a petition is in
circulation to have tho venue changed from j
Jacksonport to Woodruff, as Miss Nancy is !
now on trial at Jacksonport They i
are moved to this by two considera- i
lions—first, they wish to look into her deep |
blue eyes again; and secondly, they know
she can be acquitted here. She lived here j
several months, and her sex was never even |
suspected, She might ha vs lived here for
ever, among our simple, virtue-loving peo- j
pie. and it would never have been suspected.
Bat the moment she goes to Jacksonport—I
that Sodom, that modern Babylon—why, the
cat is out of the bag. Were brother Dye and
Mr. Davies, and all onr other divines, to
preach for years, they could not find a more
beautiful illustration of the native purity and
virtue of our population than this little epi
sode in the life of “ Miss Nancy.”
Augusta and Jacksonport—what a contrast!
The former all innocence and purity, never
suspecting wrong in others, because none do
ing wrong themselves; the latter, of the flesh,
fleshly.” The only indiscretion that we, as a j
sentinel on the watch-tower of morality,
have yet observed was a sigh from several
of the “estimables” that next winter might be
as cold as last, and tbe Billy Henderson would
cocue back.
