Info from a remember when column in the Canon City Daily Record, CO under the heading "100 years ago", published March 2005:
Not since June 26, 1896 when Warden Cleghorn of the penitentiary hung Deonicio Romero, Albert Noble and William Hold for the murder of night watchman John Soloman of Trinidad, CO has a legal execution taken place in Colorado. But last Tuesday, Azel Donald Galbraith was hung on the same gallows for the murder last year of his wife and 5 year old son.
