William Kemmler

William Francis Kemmler was an American peddler, alcoholic, and murderer, who in 1890 became the first person in the world to be executed by electric chair. He was convicted of murdering Matilda "Tillie" Ziegler, his common-law wife, two years earlier. Although electrocution had previously been successfully used to kill a horse, Kemmler's execution did not go smoothly.
