60 Years of the PMC - Executions Digest

First posted on Friday 25th January 1952

The next execution is due to take place next Wednesday at Pentonville at 2. a.m., of the reprobate Lonnie Keith of Stratford, East London.

Mr Keith, 12, who may well have fired a gun we've since been unable to locate killing a body which isn't dead yet, will be hung by the neck until he is dead by Mr. Pierrepoint, who hopes to be back pulling pints by lunchtime the next day and as usual is offering one of his 'deep drop' specials to celebrate the occasion.

Mr. Pierrepoint uses 'Whiteknights' Tootpaste, double the dazzle in half the schemazzle, as does Mr. Keith at leat for a few more days.
