He was tried and convicted of the murder of Mrs. Casey only, but there is no doubt that the double crime was committed by the same hand. Roberts' fate was decided this morning by Governor Pennewill.

The drop fell at 10:22 o'clock and at 10:37 he was declared dead by the physicians and cut down at 10:55. Final religious services were conducted by Rev. Ralph T. Coursey, of this city, and Rev. Luther F. Mezick, of Philadelphia, a singing Evangelist of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The body was given over to relatives for burial. Philadelphia Inquirer, Philadelphia, Friday, July 15, 1911
