She ate heartily In the prison cell last night, a bowl of goulash being allowed her for her last din ner. There followed a period of prayer with friends and a l'ro test ant clergyman. Interrupted once when the hangman came to weigh her so as to calculate the measure of her fall from the scaffold. She sprang back screaming, but was reassured when her friends told her the executioner was a doctor. This morning she arose and dressed unassisted and dipped a cup of coffee before being led weeping Into the prison courtyard where 70 persons were assembled to witness her death. She prayed there again for a moment and then was led to the gallows where the president of the court read the sen tence of death to her.
