GRUESOME
EXECUTION
Bungling,
at
Prince
Edward
Island
Gallows
Prolonged
Life
Of
Convicted
Seaman
CI
lARLOTTETOWN,
Nov,
21;
(CP)
Whenever,
famous
murder
trials
are
discussed
in
Prince
-Ed-Valid
Island,
'o!der
folk
tell
the
story
of
the
gruesome
hanging
of
George
Dowey,
Montreal
sailor,
who
three
times
fell
from
the
Iscaffold
before
he
was
pronounced
jdead.
...'
It
was
perhaps
the:
most
notabls
murder
trial
and;
execution
the
Island
province
had
ever
wit
nessed.
Dowey,
a
married
man,
was
en
amoured
by
Ahe
attractive
Flora
McQuarrie,
a.
resident
of
Charlette-town.
He
visited
her
one
evening
pfter
drinking
with
other
sailors
In
port.
Dowey
got
into
an
alter
cation
with
John
Cullen,
and
dur
ing
a
souffle,
Cullen
was
mortal
ly
wounded.
The
Montreal
seaman
was
tried
for
murder
and
con
victed.
Here
we
pick
up
the
story
from
the
flies
of
a
Charlottetown
paper
In
the
middle
70's.
"On
Tuesday
last,-
George
Dowey,
who
was
convicted
at
the
last.
Hilary
term
of
the
Supreme
Court,
of
the
murder
of
John
Cullen,
suffered
the
sup
reme
penualty
of
the
law."
'On
Monday
he
commenced
writing
a
history
of
-his
life,-which
he
compileled
on
the
morning
oi
his
death.
He
arranged
all
his
worldly
affairs
Mth
the
most
hiih(l
lite
attention
to
details.
He
packs'
ed
up
his
clothes
and
put
them
and
the
balance
of
his
'wages
carefully
by
in
his'
trunk
for
hlf
wife
and
mothr,
to
each
ot
whom
he
wrote
an
affectionate
farewell
letter."
Ills
Last
Moments
The
newspaper
describes
his
last
moments
with
Charlottetown
ministers.
He
emerged
bareheaded
from
his
cell
and
mounted
the
scaffold.
"Seated
on
a
chair,
he
began
at
nce
to
read
tne
history
or
nl,-Itfe,
which
he
did
In
a
clear
and
unf
altering
tone,
until
he
came
to
speak
of
his
mother,
when
a
light
tremor
in
his
voice
was
perceptable.
No
man
on
the
scaf
fold
was
more
tranquil
and
self-possessed
than
the
prisoner."
After
praying
aloud,
he
bade
farewell
to
the
ministers,
the
sher
iff,
prison
doctor,
Jailor,
the
hangman
(who
was
masked)
and
waved
to
the
1,500
persons
present.
"When
the
noose
was
adjusted,
the
unfortunate
man
stepped
smartly
forward
to
the
drop.
The
bolt
was
withdrawn
but
the
rope
breaking.-
he
fell
to
the
ground,
a
distance
of
15
feet.
He
was
picked
up
immediately
and
carried
back
to
Jail,
where
he
remained
for
an
hour,
while
a
new
rope
was
being
procured.
During
the
Interval,
though
he
suffered
great
pain,
he
uttered
hot
a
whisper
of
complaint,
but
devoted
himself
wholly
to
prayer
and
praise
to
God."
He
believed
at
first
that
the
requirements,
of
the
law
had
been
compiled
with
and
exclaimed
that
he
had
been
saved
by
the
Inter
position
of
Providence.
"When
carried
out
again
to
the
scaffold,
he
never
murmured
or
re
pined.
And
now
another
mishap
occurred.
The
cleat
to
which
the
end
of
the
rope
was
fastened
gave
way
and
the
prisoner,
who
was
almost
unconscious,
.a
second
time
reached
the
ground
from
which
he
had
to
be
drawn
up
by
the
execu
-
tloner
and
his
assistants.
He-died
without
a
struggle,
his
hands
clas-
ped
in
front
of
his
body,
and
his
wife
and
mother's
photograph
pin
ned
to
his
breast.
When
life
was
pronounced
extinct,
he
was
cut
down,,put
into
a
coffin
and
pltired
In
his
cell."
