Joe Hill was killed by a firing squad, his final words were "Fire!!"

He had written to Bill Haywood, an IWW leader, saying, "Don't waste any time in mourning. Organize."

Joe Hill's will.

"My will is easy to decide
For there is nothing to divide
My kin don't need to fuss and moan
"Moss does not cling to a rolling stone."
My body? - Oh. - If I could choose
I would to ashes it reduce
And let the merry breezes blow
My dust to where some flowers grow
Perhaps some fading flower then
Would come to life and bloom again
This is my Last and final Will
Good Luck to All of you..
Joe Hill"

I like reading about Joe Hill.
