William Kelley, a 30-year-old murderer, was the first to die by the new lethal chamber method of execution in Colorado. Doctors pronounced that he died painlessly. He was dead in 10 seconds after the funics began to generate. Kelley, who was convicted for the murder of Russel Browning, a rancher, was strapped.to a chair in the steel execution chamber. A bucket of sulphuric acid was placed behind the chair and overhead was a cloth witli potassium cyanicide in the form of eggs. The chamber was sealed; witnesses watched through a window and saw the cyanicide drop into the bucket when a lever was pulled. Light grey fumes then arose, and an instant later Kelley's head fell back and his body fell forward. Blowpipes forced first ammonia and then fresh air into the chamber, and an hour later the body was removed for the postmortem examination.
