G. Phil Hanna, Who Conducted
72 Scientific Hangings, Dies
By In* Aiteciatcd rr«»
EVANSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 7— G.
Phil Hanna, 78. who made hangings
a precise science, died here last
night.
Relatives of the wealthy farmer
oilman, from Epworth, 111., said he
had conducted 72 executions in the
Middle West with' equipment he
carefully devised himself.
Mr. Hanna credited his interest
in the gallows to a hanging he saw
as a young man in McLeansboro,
111. He said the hanged man, Cliff
Boehne, died such a lingering death
that he resolved to make hangings
quick and painless.
Working on his home farm, young
Hanna designed a steel trap to
eliminate the friction of a wooden
gallows trap. He cured ropes pains
takingly to prevent undue stretch
ing and he tested them with sand
bags.
Mr. Hanna was hired to execute;
dozens of Federal and State prison- |
ers, but he always had some one
else pull the trap. He said he had
never accepted pay except for ex
pense money for himself and two
assistants.
He collected an assortment of
weapons which had brought the •
doomed men to the gallows. His
collection ranges from tommy guns
to crudely improvised pistols.
By 1936, when he retired from his j
unusual hobby, he had supervised;
dozens of hangings in Indiana,.
Kentucky and Michigan.
He and his second wife. Martha,
had been living in a wooded retreat
on the 2,100-acre farm he and his
brother, Harry S. Hanna, operated
in White County, in Southeastern
Illinois. Several oil wells are lo
cated on the farm.
Mr. Hanna had been in Welbom
.Baptist Hospital here a week.
also retired as stated clerk of the
Washington City Presbytery, a posi
tion he had held for 10 years. On
retirement, he was made clerk emer
itus. He was also president of the
Ministerial Council of Washington.
Dr. Rohrer was secretary of the
board of the Presbyterian Home and
was chairman of the Building Com
mittee several years ago when the
Laura Hartmann Lisner Memorial
addition was added to the building
at 1818 Nrwton street N.W.
Was Master Mason.
A 32d degree Mason of the Dayton
Consistory, Dr. Rohrer was a master
Mason with Lebanon Lodge of Wash
ington.
In addition to his widow, Dr.
Roher is survived by two daugh
ters, Mrs. Dorothy Scott of Charles
ton, W. Va., and Mrs. Sarah Shane
of Pittsburgh; a son, Samuel H.
Rohrer, who lives here; a brother,
Dr. J. W. Rohrer of Granville. Ohio;
a sister, Mrs. G. A. Morris of Dayton,
ind seven grandchildren.
Funeral services will be held at
11 a.m. Thursday in. the Metropoli
tan Presbyterian Church, with
burial in Cedar Hill Cemetery.
Officiating will be the Rev. Walter
F. Wolf, pastor of the Arlington
Presbyterian Church.

funeral home, 301 East Capitol
street, will lie in state at the church
for an hour before the services.

We try not to mourn too sadly.

So many sorrows we have known.
But we know our Lord will call us
To that mansion in the sky.
To be with our loving mother forevermore
In that sweet home, by and by.
