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. |
