'''EXECUTION OF QUIN'''

BEECHWORTH. Friday

[[Jimmy Quinn|Quin]] was executed this morning a few minutes past 9 o'clock , for the murder of the Chinaman near [[Myrtleford|Myrtleford]]. He asked leave to make a statement, and protested his innocence repeatedly. He blamed his wife, and said, ''She brought me to this." His last words were, " God help me. I am an innocent man." Bamford officiated as executioner. Father Moran was in attendance on the unhappy man. The coroner being away, the usual inquest will be held to-morrow. Only a few persons were present till after his death. About 60 or 70 persons who obtained admission were by mistake kept in the outer court until the fatal bolt was drawn.
