When I was on the curatorial staff at Boot Hill
Museum at Dodge City, Kansas, I always had people
ask why we had removed the hangman's noose from a
tree in Boot Hill Cemetery.  I explained that the
noose was dangerous (people were always posing for
pictures with their head in the noose and standing
on tip-toe) and that research did not show that a
hanging tree and noose had ever been in the cemetery.
Visitors and some board members still missed it and
wished we would put it up again.
