...four are hanged at Mauch Chunk (renamed Jim Thorpe in 1953), Carbon County.

A scaffold had been erected in the Carbon County prison.

State militia with fixed bayonets surround the prisons and the scaffolds.

Miners arrive with their wives and children from the surrounding areas, walking through the night to honor the accused.

The families are silent.

Thomas Munley's aged father had walked more than ten miles (sixteen kilometers) from Gilberton to assure his son that he believed in his innocence.

Munley's wife had arrived a few minutes after they closed the gate, and they refused to open it even for close relatives to say their final good-byes.

She screams at the gate with grief, throwing herself against it until she collapses, but she is not allowed to pass.

Alexander Campbell, John "Yellow Jack" Donahue, Michael J. Doyle and Edward J. Kelly, are hanged for the murders of mine bosses John P. Jones and Morgan Powell.

Ten more of the condemned men, Thomas P. Fisher, John "Black Jack" Kehoe, Patrick Hester, Peter McHugh, Patrick Tully, Peter McManus, Dennis Donnelly, Martin Bergan, James McDonnell and Charles Sharpe, will be hanged at Mauch Chunk, Pottsville, Bloomsburg and Sunbury over the next two years.

Peter McManus is the last Molly Maguire to be tried and convicted for murder at the Northumberland County Courthouse in 1878.

When organized labor helps to elect Terence V. Powderly mayor of Scranton, Pennsylvania two years after the Molly Maguire trials, the opposition will vilify his team as the "Molly Maguire Ticket".
