Executed
Antonio Giorgio
Antonio Giorgio was a 27-year-old man born in Sicily. He was executed in the electric chair at Auburn in New York state in August 1904. He said a prayer as he was strapped in, and a priest from Rochester who had heard his confession stayed with him to the end. The newspaper reported that two more shocks were given after the first, and the state electrician, Davis, said death came from the first.
