    The last public hanging in the State took place in 1835 on Prince Hill....

Nothing can happen until I get there.’

    Late in the afternoon, we rode through Brewster, so named after Elder Brewster, for fear he would be forgotten else. Who has not heard of Elder Brewster? Who knows who he was?
