Remarkable Execution at the Prison Gallows
The execution of a young woman occurred at the prison gallows around 2 35 PM. The sheriff announced the time left until death as fourteen minutes, a pastor offered prayer, and she told the Sunday School children to beware of her fate before she died, her spirit received by the Lord. The crowd filed in to view the scene after the hanging and the body lay in a coffin at the prison door.
