35: Keeping Yourself Entertained

Over the next few weeks Cheryl April & Beth were busy preparing & effecting their big move. Temporarily denied the real thing the three girls had to rely on True Crime Monthly & library books for stimulus. In the most recent issue of True Crime three articles especially appealed to them.

The first described the execution of 23 year old Rose Harris for the murder of her husband in 1859 in Texas

Rose Harris

For the first time since the trial Rose walked out of the front of the jail behind the Sheriff instead of the back. The sun blinded her for a moment & she stopped. The deputies flanking her gently nudged her on.

The waiting crowd let out a roar when they saw the execution party appear. They were excited by the prospect of seeing the pretty slender brunette die on the scaffold.

Directly in front of them were the stairs leading up to the gallows. Above the platform a single noosed rope dangled from the wooden cross beam.

The Sheriff led the way up the steps. Rose following gathering her best blue muslin skirt in her hands so that she wouldn’t trip on the hem as she climbed the stairs. Though pale & trembling slightly she appeared to be composed.

Waiting for the prisoner on the platform was the hangman. Once Rose had finished climbing the stairs he stepped forward & guided her towards the noose. The deputies retired to the back of the platform.

The Sheriff stepped forward & facing the crowd said loudly, “Rose Harris you have been found guilty of murder & sentenced to death by hanging. Do you have any last words before the sentence is carried out?”.

Rose began to cry gently & shook her head. The hangman crossed her wrists behind her & tied them together with rawhide. He then placed the noose around her shivering neck, lifting her braided brown hair out of the way, & pulled it tight & pulled a white cloth hood down over the prisoner’s head.

The cheering & shouting of the crowd died down as they looked up at the slim young woman standing alone & unsupported about to die. Rose’s tight white blouse moved in & out as her rate of breathing increased as her terror grew.

The hangman pulled a lever & the front of the gallows platform fell away. Rose only dropped about three feet & she writhed, convulsed & kicked for several minutes before her body hung still

The next piece concerned the execution of two girls in South Dakota in 1856

Sandra Smith & Trixie Morgan

Sandra Smith & Trixie Morgan were two 18 year old former slaves who after escaping from their plantation in Virginia headed out west. To keep body & soul together they had ended up working as bar girls in a saloon in South Dakota.

Unhappy at the situation they found themselves in they had murdered & robbed a wealthy rancher who had regularly availed himself of their services.

They were quickly apprehended as they tried to flee & their trial was brief. The verdict was guilty & the sentence death by hanging

Wearing the only clothes they owned which were the revealing knee length saloon hostess dresses they were dragged sobbing & pleading to the scaffold. Once on the platform their hands were tied behind their backs & the ropes placed around their necks.

The Sheriff read out the charges, verdicts & sentences. No hoods were used & both girls stared out at the crowd in wide eyed terror tears streaming down their cheeks.

As the hangman reached for the trap lever Sandra screamed “NOOOOH!” & Trixie shrieked “PLEAASE!”. As they trap fell the girls skimpy dresses billowed up above their stocking tops as they plunged through the platform floor.

The fall was too short to break their necks & they both danced on the gallows ropes for an agonising eight minutes before their suffering was finally over

The final article recounted the hanging of three young sisters at Tyburn in London in 1765.

Anne, Margaret & Elizabeth Coldfield

Anne, Margaret & Elizabeth Coldfield were 19, 21 & 23 years of age respectively. They had murdered the uncle they lived with to get their hands on his money.

A large raucous crowd had gathered to watch the hanging of three young & attractive women. As the cart approached the Triple Tree they wailed & pleaded for mercy.

One at a time the desperately struggling & screaming girls were dragged from the cart, their hands tied behind them & forced up the ladder resting on the crossbeam by the hangman.

His assistant sitting astride the beam dropped the nooses down to the executioner who put them round the girls’ necks in preparation for pushing them off the ladder.

Anne was the first to be hanged & her sisters had to wait & watch as she started to dance on the gibbet. Margaret went next & by the time Elizabeth was turned off she was almost faint with terror.

The crowd relished the spectacle of the violently convulsing, vigorous kicking & agonised faces of the three young women as they slowly strangled to death.

The frantic threshing of their legs lifted their skirts to what a contemporary witness described as “An indecent level”. They each took about five minutes to expire, their struggles slowing & then finally ceasing until the three sisters swung lifeless on the gallows

After reading the articles Cheryl, April & Beth had their best mutual orgasms since the last murder
