Annie Tribble
Annie Tribble, a Black woman, was hanged by the State of South Carolina in Newberry on October 7, 1892, according to The Atlanta Constitution. The paper reported that she was distressed that morning and that, on the scaffold, she protested her innocence. The paper said her death was pronounced about a minute and a half after the trigger was pulled. A later report of a hanging at Newberry gives the name as Anna Tribble and refers to February, a conflict in the record that is not resolved here.
Cause of death, as reported: Executed by the state. The newspaper reports that she protested her innocence on the scaffold, and it describes her as disturbed and raving that morning.
Reported by: State of South Carolina; Newspaper report on the Newberry hanging (reporters).
