A SPANISH HERO
SHOT TO DEATH
Prof. Ferrer, Convicted Revc
luBonisirts Executed in H
Spain,
Barcelona*. Oct. 14. ? Prof. Fran
cisco Ferrer, tho Spanish educator
and oonvlf.lpri revolutionist, was Bhot
yesterday. " The execution was done
at the fortress of Montjulch, where
the prisoner had been confined slnoe
his condemnation by - court-martial.
The doomed man faced the firing
squad without flinching and fell dead
at the first volley.
Ferrer, except for a momentary
expression" of qjnol toll. ~ tfflTg&d lately
preceding his death l(- retained his
compoBure to the last. His attorney,
M. Galceran, who had d^ended the
prieoncr so loyally as to bring about
his own arrest for improperly ad
dressing the court had secured per
mission for a brief talk with the
revolutionist before the latter was
led to the ditch where he wag to die.
JToJiia attorney Ferrer spoke feeling
ly of the work for which
riflced hiB life and the future of his
daughter. ' whose brave attempt " to
eavo bto life, touched the- father mora,
deeply, apparently, than any other
' incident of his trial and conviction.
,On Ferrer's arrest his family was left
dependent upon the daughter, who at
once secured employment In a biscuit
factory. When It was known that
her father had been ? sentenced to
death, the daughter made a personal
appeal to King Alfonso, calling upon
him in the name of his known gener- '
oslty and chivalry to spare her fath-|
er's lifo. When the facts were relat
ed by Galceran, Ferrer broke down.
It was but a- passing emotion, and
presently the undaunted revolutionist
was himself again.
