CARSON CITY, Jan.
17, Patsy Dwyer, convicted of the murder of A. C.
Williams at Austin and under sentence of death,
his execution being set for the 25th of the month,
he is pacing restlessly in one of the condemned
cells at the state prison. He talks
little to the silent death watch that sits all day
in his cell close beside him, but spends his time
in walking the length of his narrow cell and
gazing against the stone or steel. The attorney
for Dwyer has been Ill and the convicted man
cannot get into communication with him hence his
worry. Nothing has been done in the supreme court
toward getting a stay of execution in the case and
Dwyer looks forward now to only a few more days on
earth. His attorney may arrive in time to secure a
stay of execution, but Dwyer says that he Is now
out of money and friends, therefore can employ no
one to look after his case. Tonopah Bonanza Saturday January 19,
1907
