CERONE MOANS
AS WARDEN
SPRINGS TRAP
Daniel Cerone was hanged at the
Connecticut State Pirson at Wethers
field a few minutes after midnight
yesterday morning, for the murder, in
Hamden of his stepdaughter. His
last words, as the black hood was
being fitted over his head, and the
noose tightened about his neck, were
"Ma! Ma!"
The prisoner moaned with fear as
he entered the execution chamber
supported on either side by prison
guards. Rev. Father Barry, Catholic
chaplain of the institution was read
ing the litany for the dying. The re
sponses of the condemned man came
in a shaking voice. As he stood over
the trap, beneath the fatal noose,
suaru sieppeu lorwaru wnn me DiacK
hood, while another bound his hands. !
vvait a mmure: sam me prisoner.
I want to say something." What-!n,i,
ever statement he had in mind was
cut short, however, by the hood,
caught around his neck by the noose.
He entered the chamber at 12:0S:12;
he was pronounced dead at 12:19:5.
Thursday, his last day of life, was his
birthday. He was 34 years old.
