| 词条 | John Hulbert (executioner) |
| 释义 |
According to his colleague, Sing Sing prison physician Amos Squire, Hulbert became significantly depressed about his job, but performed the duty for the good salary of $150 per execution.[5] Hulbert went to lengths to maintain his privacy, never allowed the press to obtain a photograph, and was described in newspapers as "the man who walks alone."[6] Following a nervous breakdown in 1926, Hulbert retired as executioner. He said, "I got tired of killing people."[2] In 1929, Hulbert became further depressed over the death of his wife, Mattie, and, at the age of 59, committed suicide by going into the cellar of his home and shooting himself.[7] Hulbert was survived by two children, Martha, age 24, and John D., age 29. He was buried beside his wife in Soule Cemetery, Sennett, New York.[8] See also
