WOMAN SLAYER GOES TO DEATH Mrs. Elizabeth Tilford, 51, Hanged for Husband's Poison Death. By T'nitid Press WOODSTOCK, Ontario, Dec. 17. —Mrs. Elizabeth Tilford, 51, was led across the prison yard through a snowstorm early today and hanged for the murder of her husband. She died silently and “quickly and painlessly.” according to Mrs. M. J. Breckenridge, special jail matron who attended her. Provincial Secretary Harry C. Nixon permitted only jail attendants and her spiritual adviser, the Rev. Stanley Dixon, to witness the execution. She was the first woman to die on the gallows in Ontario in 62 years. Her body .was claimed by her two sons of her second marriage, William and Norman Walker, and by a special dispensation she will be buried in a private cemetery instead | of in the jail yard. Mr. Nixon established a censor-, ship, but reporters from a vantage ; point across the road from the j prison saw' Mrs. Tilford, who I weighed 200 pounds, collapse in her' cell a half hour before she was led | to the gallows. Matrons revived her. j Mr. Dixon, paster of a local Church of the Nazarene, was with her dur- j ing her last hours. When the time ! came snow was falling heavily and four inches of snow was on the ground. It was bitterly cold. Mrs. Tilford poisoned her third husband, Tyrell. He died April 1. She was convicted Oct. 2 and maintained her innocence to the last. Lincoln Club to Give Party Card party is to be given tonight by the Lincoln Club at 523 N. Belle Vieu-pl. John Logue is to be in charge.
