about forty-six rods west from the river and at a point about thirty yards north from the present embankment of the P. Ft. W. & C. R. R., which was also where the execution was to take place.
A Talks With the Prisoner .- I visited the jail for the purpose of seeing the prisoner, and, if possible, to have a talk with him. I found, upon arriving at the jail, quite a num- ber of visitors, actuated by the same motive, already there. The outer door was open, and an old negro interpreter named Jonathan Pointer was seated by the door ready to give any information in his power, or to ask the prisoner any questions desired and interpret . the answer. This old negro was taken cap- tive by the Indians when a child, had grown to manhood and to old agc (he was then about sixty years old) among them. He had Icarned to speak their dialect, as also the English language, and was the principal in- terpreter for the nation.
'The prisoner was a stout, muscular young man, apparently about twenty-two years old, brave and sullen as a lion. I conversed with him some by means of the interpreter Jona- than. IIc had but little to say, answering my questions in the shortest manner possible. He was very uneasy, continually pacing around his prison, frequently stopping for a moment at the little window to gaze away in the direction of his grave-diggers, who were plainly visible at their work. After standing and gazing thus for a few moments he would turn suddenly away, and resume his uneasy walking around his prison like a hyena in his cage.
Preparing for the Execution .- The chiefs of the nation were closely shut in the council- house from early morn until late in the after- noon, when, having arranged the execution, which was to be conducted in true Indian military style, came out and gave orders to proceed with the execution. The executioners were six in number, secretly selected, thrce from the Christian and three from the heathen party. They were cach at the proper time to be furnished with a loaded rifle, five of which were to contain powder and ball, and one to contain only powder. None of these were to know which had the rifle with the blank charge.
As before stated the execution was to take place at the grave. Accordingly, about 4 P. M., the spectators were arranged in two par- allel lines, about fifteen yards apart, extend- ing from the grave northward to a point about twenty rods from the grave, at which point the executioners were to be stationcd. The Indian spectators were upon the west side of the line, while the whites occupied the cast side. There were many more whites than Indians, consequently a better chance of witnessing the proceeding was enjoyed by those on the Indian side. It was my fortune to occupy a position among the Indians, within a few feet of the grave.
The Prisoner Brought Forth .- Orders were given to bring the prisoner to the place of execution, and four braves, with rope in
hand, approached the jail, two of whom en- tered and bound the prisoner securely by passing the rope twice around his body over his arms, which were securely fastened to his sides. He was now directed to pass out, each guard holding opposite ends of the rope. Once out of the prison the march to the place of execution commenced, the prisoner march- ing between the guards, two on either side, holding firmly the rope that bound him.
The route taken was along an old trail past the graveyard and council-house before spoken of, down to the river bottom at the southcast part of the village to the grave-a distance of about a mile. I accompanied this march and watched the prisoner closely, who marched the whole distance without a falter, and apparently as firm and stcady as though nothing unusual was in waiting. Soon after the arrival of the prisoner, and while he was standing at the foot of his grave, Chief Wil- liam Walker, one of the principal men of the nation, a good scholar and grand orator, advanced along the open space between the two lines of spectators to a point about twenty fcet from the prisoner, and directly fronting him, proceeded in a loud and clear voice to read the death warrant. This was donc first in the Wyandot dialect, and then in the English language. This document was a model one, couched in the finest language, and clear and pointed in every detail ; one that would do honor to the most learned ju- diciary of any civilized nation. It recited the circumstances under which the crime had been committed, the details of the trial, how - the prisoner had been tried by two tribunals, and had been found guilty by the highest one known to the nation, and sentenced to suffer death.
Stoicism of the Prisoner .- The most per- fect silence prevailed among the entire audi- ence during the reading. The prisoner, standing ercct and gazing away into space, seemed perfectly unconcerned about what was passing. During the time these proceedings were taking place, his coffin, a rude box, was brought and placed beside his grave. He simply turned his head and took a look at it for a moment, and then, without apparently any emotion, resumed his vacant stare into spacc. He did not utter a word or make a noise of any kind during this whole perform- ance. After concluding the reading of the death warrant he was asked by Chief Walker if he had anything to say. He simply shook his head, at which Walker, moving away, gave a signal to the guards.
The Death .- One of the guards now ad- vanced and requested the prisoner to kncel at the foot of his grave, which he did with- out any emotion. The guard then bound a handkerchief over his eyes. The prisoner, after kneeling, raised his head, and, holding himself erect, remained motionless as a statue. The executioners had previously been se- creted behind a cluster of willows standing a few rods east from the line of spectators ; and as soon as the prisoner had been blindfolded they emerged stealthily in single file, and,

marching directly to the head of the open space between the lines of spectators, took their position, when an officer, detailed for the purpose, advanced and handed each man his rifle, and stepping aside, another officer stepped to the front and to the east, with rod in hand, and raised it up, at which the exe- cutioners raised their rifles to take aim ; the officer dropped his rod, and the six rifles were fired simultaneously-not a word was spoken.
Upon the report of the rifles the prisoner instantly fell forward and to the right, and did not make a single motion or utter a sound. Dr. Mason, a physician at the agency, stepped forward, and after a short examination pro-
nounced him dead. The body was now put into the coffin and the lid nailed on, and the whole was lowered into the grave and covered. Thus ended the last Indian execution among the Wyandots at Upper Sandusky.
This tribe left their reservation about three years thereafter, and settled in the then Ter- ritory of Kansas.
Intemperance was the great curse of the Indians, and one often reads the expression of "tying up an Indian " when wild and dangerous from intoxication. This means tying his elbows together behind his back and his ankles together, and then laying him on the ground until he becomes sober.

CHARLES DICKENS AT UPPER SANDUSKY.
In 1842, four years before my own visit to Upper Sandusky, Charles Dickens passed through the place, tarrying over night at a log-tavern. He had come in a stage coach from Columbus, and was en route to Sandusky City, where he took a steamer for Buffalo. In his " American Notes," after describing the roughness of the travelling by stage coach, the painful experience of jolting over corduroy roads, and through forests, bogs and swamps, the team foreing its way cork-screw fashion, he says :
At length, between ten and eleven o'clock at night, a few feeble lights appeared in the distance, and Upper Sandusky, an Indian village, where we were to stay till morning, lay before us. They were gone to bed at the log-inn, which was the only house of enter- tainment in the place, but soon answered our knocking, and got some tea for us in a sort of kitchen or common room, tapestried with old newspapers pasted against the wall. The bedehamber to which my wife and I were shown was a large, low, ghostly room, with a quantity of withered branches on the hearth, and two doors without any fastening, oppo- site to each other, both opening on the black night and wild country, and so contrived that one of them always blew the other open ; a novelty in domestic architecture which I do not remember to have seen before, and which I was somewhat disconcerted to have forced on my attention after getting into bed, as I had a considerable sum in gold for our trav- elling expenses in my dressing-case. Some of the luggage, however, piled against the panels soon settled this difficulty, and my sleep would not have been very much affected that night, I believe, though it had failed to do so.
My Boston friend climbed up to bed some- where in the roof, where another guest was already snoring hugely. But being bitten beyond his power of endurance he turned out again, and fled for shelter to the coach, which was airing itself in front of the house. This was not a very politic step as it turned ont, for the pigs scenting him, and looking upon the coach as a kind of pie with some manner of meat inside, grunted round it so hideously that he was afraid to come out again, and lay there shivering till morning. Nor was it possible to warm him, when he did come out, by means of a glass of brandy ; for in Indian
villages the legislature, with a very good and wise intention, forbids the sale of spirits by tavern-keepers. The precaution, however, is quite inefficacious, for the Indian never fails to procure liquor of a worse kind at a dearer price from travelling peddlers.
It is a settlement of Wyandot Indians who inhabit this place. Among the company was a mild old gentleman (Col. John Johnston), who had been for many years employed by the United States government in conducting negotiations with the Indians, and who had just concluded a treaty with these people by which they bound themselves, in consideration of a certain annual sum, to remove next year to some land provided for them west of the Mississippi and a little way beyond St. Louis. He gave me a moving account of their strong attachment to the familiar scenes of their in- fancy, and in particular to the burial places of their kindred, and of their great reluctance to leave them.
He had witnessed many such removals, and always with pain, though he knew that they departed for their own good. The question whether this tribe should go or stay had been discussed among them a day or two before in a hut erected for the purpose, the logs of which still lay upon the ground before the inn. When the speaking was done the ayes and noes were ranged on opposite sides, and every male adult voted in his turn. The moment the result was known the minority (a large one) cheerfully yielded to the rest, and withdrew all kind of opposition.
We met some of these poor Indians after- ward riding on shaggy ponies. They were so like the meaner sort of gypsies that if I could have seen any of them in England I should have concluded, as a matter of course, that they belonged to that wandering and restless people.

JAMES EDWIN CAMPBELL was born in Middletown, Butler county, Ohio, July 7, 1843. His father was of Scotch extraction and his mother of English. His Pilgrim ancestors settled in Plymouth colony soon after its formation. Dur- ing the Revolutionary war several of his · ancestors took a distinguished part, and both of his grandfathers were soldiers in the war of 1812.

MOSSINGCONT)
James E. Campbell was educated in the public schools, began the study of law, and for a time taught school. In 1863 he entered his country's service as a master's mate on a gunboat. He served on the gunboats Elk and Naiad, of the Mississippi and Red River flotillas, and took part in a number of engage- ments, but at the expiration of a year's service his health was so "impaired by the miasma of the river-bottoms that he was discharged, and returned home a mere semblance of the vigorous young man that a year before had entered the service.
GOV. JAMES E. CAMPBELL. As soon as his health would permit he resumed his law studies in the office of Doty & Gunckel, of Middletown, and in 1865 was admitted to the bar. He did not commence the practice of his profession until 1867. In the interim he was bookkeeper of the First National Bank of Middletown, and was also a Deputy in the Internal Revenue service at Hamilton. In January, 1870, he was married to Miss Libbie Owens, daughter of Job E. Owens and Mary A. Price.
In 1875 he was elected Prosecuting Attorney for Butler county, and re-elected at the expiration of his term. In 1879 he was defeated for the State Senate by only twelve votes.
Until the Greeley campaign he was a Republican, but since that time has acted with the Democrats.
In 1885 he was elected to Congress, and re-elected in 1887. In 1889 he was elected Governor of Ohio by a plurality of 10,872 votes over ex-Gov. J. B. Foraker.
Gov. Campbell's administration of the State's affairs has been able and vigor- ous. As a lawyer he is well informed on all points, and has held many important receiverships and other trusts. He is a clear, foreible speaker, and impresses his hearers with his earnestness of purpose. He is somewhat above the average height, with a fine presence, suave and courteous in manner.
