61 years ago An Olive Tree Would Sprout



Murderer Victor Harry Feguer is executed by hanging at the age of 28 in Iowa State Penitentiary, Fort Madison, Iowa, United States.


Feguer's last meal request was for a single olive with the pit still in it. He told guards he hoped an olive tree would sprout from his grave as a sign of peace. Feguer was buried in an unmarked grave in Fort Madison City Cemetery in Iowa wearing a second new suit that was provided for his burial.
