 Item
Identifier: CC-13326-13627
Scope and Contents

Dick Turpin was a British bandit in the 1800's who was considered to be the "Gentleman of the Road" but who actually was a thug and petty thief. On being sentenced to death, he delivered an eloquent 25 minute speech in a calm voice with the noose around his neck. Fencott's narrative element is intuitive rather than actual autobiography. Steve McCaffery recorded the performance. Also designated No.3 in Underwhich Audiograph Series. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
