Sentenced to Hang.
During the four years that
Judge F. D. Fulkerson has pre
sided upon the criminal bench of
this circuit, his honor had never
been called upon to pass sentence
of death until in the case of Wal
lace Grant, for the murder of
Essex Powers, October 23, 19U1.
When court convened after the
noon recess Tuesday, and a few
preliminaries had been disposed
of, among which was the refusal
by the court to grant a new trial
to Grant, the prisoner who had
been brought into court, was re
quested to stand and offer reason
why he should not receive senten
ce, lie took matters very indif
ferently to all appearances, and
as he began to speak, his face
broadened tor an instant into a
grin, which was short-lived how
ever.
His attorneys interposed no ob
jection and Judge Fulkerson pro
ceeded to pass sentence upon the
condemned man. He seemed
