Otis I-oveland, the last of the trio of
robbers who killed George Geyer, a

shocks were necessary before Ixiveland
was pronounced dead. The condemned
man's body showed remarkable resist
ance. the instrument recording 5V4
amperes.

cause death, it was found necessary to
remove the electrodes and wet the
sponges. When the second shock

volts, was turned into the body, which
Jerked and writhed under the heavy
electric force. A third shock was ad
ministered to make the electrocution

demned man. Uoveiand was visibly
excited when he went to the chair,
but showed no signs of weakness.
