Gisborne, THE MAN THEY GOULD NOT HANG THRBfe ATTfeMPTS WEftE MADE TO HANG HIM; ANO EACH ONE FAILED! The morning of the execution Jbhi Lee was placed on the scaffold. He h asked by the prison chaplain to mal« his confession before it is too late, but he replies :— • • "Forgive them, Lord, for they know not; what they do." The cruel, strangling rope was placed around his neck, and the black mask put over his face. The hangman. and the warders took up their positions and await the order that would send this soul into eternity. ■ " THEN', AS IF A THUNDERBOLT FROM HEAVEN— THE TRAP-DOOR FAILS TO OPEN! Lee was taken down from the scaffold. Two bags of sand were then placed into position, exactly the same (weight as Lee, to ' test it. Strange to say, the. trap worked smoothly! AGAIN THEY TRY! AGAIN THEY FAIL TO HANG HIM! YET A THIRD TIME!! AND STILL THEY. FAIL!! What mysterious power prevented the scaffold • from . working each time John Lee Was placed on ifc? Was it that God intervened - for an Innocent, Man ?
