Executed
Grady
Grady was a man held at the jail under a death sentence, and the paper described him as the most cheerful man of the group condemned with him. In his final hours he prayed with priests, and as he walked the corridor, fellow prisoners called out "God bless you" and "May we meet in heaven," moving many of them to tears. He was hanged at the jail, and the paper reported that he approached the gallows calmly. Physicians examined him about ten minutes after the drop and said his neck was broken instantly, after which guards took his remains to Mount Olivet Cemetery.
