Newton Andrews and Fred Arnold were hanged at the state penitentiary last Friday night between eight and nine o'clock. The grim event drew few spectators inside the walls, but Denver papers later highlighted the crime and the execution. Andrews spoke briefly, proclaiming truth about the case, while Arnold offered apologies and claimed innocence. The trio, including Charles Peters, had robbed the Youngbloods of Valverde after attacking their home on New Year’s Eve 1908, killing Mrs. Youngblood and wounding her son Robert. The narrative notes their ages and backgrounds and that Peters shows signs of insanity with a future execution date. The article closes with a brief aside about catarrh remedies and Hall's Catarrh Cure, unrelated to the crime."
