Guilty or not, justly or not, Nicola Sacco, clean-shaven factory worker, and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, mustachioed fish-peddler, were informed last Monday evening that they must die that midnight for the murders-which to the end they denied committing-of a paymaster and guard at South Braintree, Mass...
