The Path to the Gallows: The story of Andy Taylor's hanging in Loudon County

The story of Andy Taylor's hanging in Loudon County, Tennessee, on November 23, 1883, is a dramatic and somber tale, branded by local newspapers as one of the "boldest and most atrocious" crimes in the state's history. It's a narrative that culminates in a public execution and, intriguingly, echoes through the halls of the very courthouse where his fate was sealed.
