Died. Alvan Tufts Fuller, 80, onetime (1925-29) Republican governor of Massachusetts, who backed up the state judiciary, decided not to delay the electrocution of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti beyond Aug. 23, 1927; in Boston. A wealthy auto dealer (Packard) and onetime (1917-21) U.S. Congressman, Fuller was beset by pressure from near and far to intervene in behalf of the condemned men. After he appointed a committee headed by Harvard President A. Lawrence Lowell, which reviewed all testimony and supported the jury's decision that Sacco and Vanzetti were guilty of murder, the New York Times editorialized that "the condemned have had every opportunity which the law affords." Nonetheless, agitators charged that Millionaire Fuller and Brahmin Lowell were predisposed against the immigrant, anarchist Italians. On completion of his second term, Fuller--who never cashed a paycheck as Congressman or governor--returned to his business, became noted in Boston as a patron of arts and music.
