Never were more eloquent speeches delivered in Atlanta. Governor Hill never delivered a stronger speech.

General Lorenzo Garcia, on his way from Camargo to Mier with an escort the night they were shot, when notified of their arrest, ordered their summary execution, which took place in the pres ence of tfieir pleading families.
