This is the only account, known by us,
of a man who was hung and miraculously lived to tell the
story . . .
convicted at 19 . . . hung at 21 . . . died at 66.
An innocent, young man,
Ben McSwain, only nineteen years old was sentenced to hang for a murder
he did not commit; once in 1893 and again in 1895.
After the sentence, Ben
vowed all twelve men on the jury would die before he did . . . with their boots on. What are the ODDS? IMPOSSIBLE!
THE UN-HANGABLE MAN
by Duel Stone is a
historical novel of recorded and witnessed facts and a fascinating tale. It is an
unusual story of the assassination of the son of the wealthiest man in the
county, of a convicted prisoner's escape through a jailbreak by friends,
and of a leader who was elected governor on the basis of his promise to
repeal the death penalty so a convicted prisoner might live. It also
includes the workings of a band of men called 'White Caps' (similar to the KKK or Ku Klux klan), who conducted a reign of terror in southern
Mississippi post Civil War era. It is an intriguing account of the
incredible deeds of a group of murderers with their lips sealed while an
innocent friend, who took their blood oath of secrecy at Devil's Bend,
Mississippi, goes to the gallows.
When Jason Cole was
killed, did emotions rule rather than reason and evidence? Someone had to
pay for the death of a rich man's son. Why was everyone in the courtroom
armed and deputized? It was to thwart the White Caps from trying to rescue
Ben McSwain from the courtroom. Without regard to sworn testimonies, the
attitude of the twelve-man jury was fixed toward a conviction.
Thousands gathered to
watch the hanging. When the noose slipped and Ben McSwain miraculously
plummeted to the ground, without his neck breaking, it was considered a
Divine Deliverance.
The legendary events: the
murder of Jason Cole . . . the White Caps lynching a black man . . . the
conspiracy against Benjamin . . . the trial . . . the conviction . . . the
hanging . . . the miracle on the gallows . . . the jailbreak . . .
imprisonment . . . the pardon . . . the deathbed confession . . . the
exoneration . . . the legislative compensation . . . and Ben's courtroom
unwavering claim of innocence and his prophetic vow to outlive the twelve
men on the jury propel THE UN-HANGABLE MAN to be an inspirational and
unforgettable story.
