Resisting Wife
Slayer Hanged
Walla Walla, Nov. 18 (P) A
mother'i vain mile-consuming
effort to keep her son from
walking the "last mile" failed
last night and early today Wayne
L. Williams was hanged for the
slaying of his wife.
He was pronounced dead at
12:16 a.m. after being carried
to the gallows strapped to a
board. He had refused to walk
and resisted as the black mask
was placed over his face.
The snap of the trap-door
brought to an end the desperate
bid of Williams' mother, Mrs.
Nora Williams of Everett, to
stay the execution. Contending
that her son had been insane for
some time before moving to
Washington from Tulsa, Okla.,
she appealed to the state su
preme court in Olympia and
then to lower courts at Walla
Walla, Pasco and Yakima by ap
plication for a writ of habeas
corpus. All were denied.
Williams, 32, was convicted of
bludgeoning his wife, Hallie Lu
cile, 27, with a rock, then push
ing her body over a steep cliff
overlooking Puget sound near
Mukilteo on June 17, 1948.
His four-year-old daughter,
Mary Bernice, also was beaten
and pushed over the precipice
but survived.
