The hangman got 20 pounds to hang the prisoner.
Why did he refuse to hang the prisoner:
- In this play, an unconventional hero, the new hangman, refuses to do his share of the labour at a criminal's death. His uprising is against the inhumanity of murdering a man in cold blood, as well as the unfairness of forcing a fellow man to perform such a dreadful duty.
- The new hangman assures the chaplain that he will not be hanging the prisoner. He views hanging to be the dirtiest employment since it lacks all dignity and respect. He saves a man's life by refusing to hang him in the nick of time when no one else is willing to do it.
