Then raising his eyes,: he saw those awaiting his coming and cried: ‘“‘Courage, comrades. Vive l’anarchie!” The walk to the guillotine was exceedingly short. Here he . was seized by the assistants of. Deibler and bound to .the bascule, Then there was, a flash as the heavy knife dropped. At the same moment Henry cried out again: ‘*'Vive panarchie,” and then there was silence. The head of the anarchist dropped into the basket :in ' ‘front of the guillotine. The headless trunk wasjunbound from the plank on which it was bound and placed together with the head in a black van and carried to the “‘turnip field,” the burial place of executed criminals, where it was interred.
