The trap having been sprung for the Delgadillo execution, Elfego Baca stationed himself near the attending physician, busily engaged at the time counting the murmurs and pulsations of Delgadillo's heart beat. The physician whispered the result of his findings to Elfego, who then announced Gentlemen, the official time is three minutes and sixteen seconds speaking grimly through clenched teeth. He continued, Gentlemen, this is one of the nicest hangings I have ever seen. Every-thing went off beautifully. Such is one of William A. Keleher's recollections of a hanging he covered as a young reporter for the Albuquerque Journal of many fascinating reminiscences of early Albuquerque in this Memoir of an active life as telegraph operator, newspaper reporter, lawyer. There are delightful stories about Franz Huning, whose castle was partly in New Albuquerque, partly in Old Albuquerque, stories of visiting the Old Town jail to see an Albuquerque editor serving a term for contempt; of the heroism of John Braden, for whom a fountain was erected in Robinson Park, Albuquerque, but without any indication of whom it honors.
