full_context: Document 1: List of people executed in Texas, 1920–29: The following is a list of people executed by the U.S. state of Texas between 1920 and 1929. A total of 66 individuals were executed during this period. From 1920 to 1923, ten individuals were executed by hanging. The last hanging in the state was that of Nathan Lee, a man convicted of murder and executed in Brazoria County on August 31, 1923. The law was changed in 1923 requiring executions be carried out on the electric chair and that they take place at the Huntsville Unit in Huntsville, Texas. From 1924 to 1929, 56 individuals were executed by electrocution, the first 5 individuals executed by this method took place on February 8, 1924 (this remains a state record for the number of executions in a single day).
Document 2: List of people executed in New Jersey: This is a list of people executed in New Jersey. No one has been executed by the state of New Jersey since 1963, although a statute reinstating capital punishment for murder had been in force from 1982 until 2007. New Jersey executed a total of 361 people from its inception to the abolition of the death penalty on December 17, 2007. The first person executed was a slave known to history only as Tom for a rape in 1690. The last execution was of Ralph Hudson for murder on January 22, 1963. Of those executions, 187 occurred in the 20th century. The last execution for a crime other than murder (or conspiracy to murder) was of Andrew Clark in 1872 for rape. The last woman executed was Margaret Meierhoffer in 1881. Except for a dozen slaves executed by burning in the early 18th century, executions in New Jersey were by hanging until 1906 and electrocution since then, with the exception of an execution by hanging in 1909.
Document 3: Edwin Davis (executioner): Edwin F. Davis (May 28, 1846 – May 26, 1923), of Corning, Steuben County, New York was the first "state electrician" (executioner) for the State of New York. In 1890, Davis finalized many features of the first electric chair used.

Place, as well as the assassin of William McKinley, Leon Frank Czolgosz.

Document 5: Old Smokey: Old Smokey is a euphemistic name given to the state prison electric chair in New Jersey, which is on display at the New Jersey State Police Museum. The chair's most notorious victim was Richard Hauptmann, the man executed in the chair after being found guilty of abducting and killing Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr. in 1932, the 20-month-old son of famous aviators Charles Lindbergh and Anne Morrow Lindbergh "(see Lindbergh kidnapping)".

He was convicted in 1979 of the murder of Seward, who, along with his wife, was killed by a shotgun blast in rural Muskogee County, Oklahoma, when they interrupted a robbery at a relative's house. Coleman was executed in 1990 after almost twelve years on death row at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary. He was put to death by the State of Oklahoma by lethal injection at the age of 43 after exhausting all appeals. (At the time, Coleman had become friends with Gregory R. Wilhoit, now a death row exoneree, though they had argued bitterly over the death penalty.) He became the first person to be executed in Oklahoma since the 1966 electrocution of James Donald French after the United States Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty in 1976 and the first person in Oklahoma to be executed by lethal injection.
Document 8: James Neil Tucker: James Neil Tucker (January 12, 1957 – May 28, 2004) was a convicted murderer executed by the U.S. state of South Carolina by means of the electric chair.

Hulbert was trained as "state electrician" by his predecessor, Edwin F. Davis, and oversaw 140 executions during his tenure.
Document 10: Electrocution: Electrocution is death caused by electric shock, electric current passing through the body. The word is derived from "electro" and "execution", but it is also used for accidental death. The word is also used to describe non-fatal injuries due to electricity. The term "electrocution," was coined in 1889 by US newspapers just before the first use of the electric chair in 1890, originally referred only to electrical execution (from which it is a portmanteau word), and not to accidental or suicidal electrical deaths. However, since no English word was available for non-judicial deaths due to electric shock, the word "electrocution" eventually took over as a description of all circumstances of electrical death from the new commercial electricity.
Document 11: William Kemmler: William Francis Kemmler (May 9, 1860 – August 6, 1890) of Buffalo, New York, was a convicted murderer and the first person in the world to be legally executed using an electric chair.

MacPhail was working as a security guard at a Burger King restaurant when he intervened to defend a man being assaulted in a nearby parking lot. During Davis's 1991 trial, seven witnesses testified they had seen Davis shoot MacPhail, and two others testified Davis had confessed the murder to them. There were 34 witnesses who testified for the prosecution, and six others for the defense, including Davis. Although the murder weapon was not recovered, ballistic evidence presented at trial linked bullets recovered at or near the scene to those at another shooting in which Davis was also charged. He was convicted of murder and various lesser charges, including the earlier shooting, and was sentenced to death in August 1991.

Document 15: Arthur Hodges: Arthur Hodges (c. 1893 – December 18, 1914) was a white man who became the first person in Clark County, Arkansas to be executed by means of the electric chair.

The eight executions in a 16-day period were the subject of an article, "Eight to Die in Arkansas", published in "The Kansas City Star".
