My Great Grandpa was 10 years old when the last man was hanged in Ripley,WV.
His father forbid the family to go,though he,himself was going.
His son,my Great Grandpa, sneaked his way there. Said he sat upon a fence.
Saw the man's tongue hanging out as he turned purple.
Jumped off the fence and ran home.
Heard his Father tell his Mother, he wished he had not gone.
My Great Grandpa wished he hadn't gone either,and always told me so.
Quoting: For a better day Just wanted to add,Grandpa died at 100 years old. He was born in 1887. Died 1987. Wow. Yeah, just like my grandma, (1900-2000)they saw quite a huge bunch of changes. I mean, cars, and lights and freezers and fridges, and telephones, and computers. Unreal. Their stories and knowledge were awesome weren't they!
