The trap was sprung yesterday
promptly on time which sent
Harry Egbert, the slayer of John

nity. He kept up his nerve to
the last and stated from the gal
lows that his downfall was due to
his raising and women.
On Tuesday last he was inter
viewed by an Oregonian 1 eporter
to whom he talked. The article
says in part:
• Smoking cigarettes incessantly
and trying to reconcile himself to
the inevitable. Harry D. Egbert
is passing the time in his prison
cell awaiting the day of his execu
tion, January 29. While there
seems to be nothing of the brag
gadocio about him and no indica
tion of a desire to pose as a
“brave” man, in the sense the
term was used by Murderer Arm
strong, yet vanity is plainly one of
his characteristics, and he will
probably try to maintain his self
possession during the last act of
his life. He is in the best of
spirits, eats heartily, sleeps well
and talks pleasantly. If he is sorry
for his foul deed there is no inti
mation of it in his conversation.
