Gallows Hill (Westcott Fountain)

Florida State University’s campus is full of history in every direction, but I’d never heard of Gallows Hill before.
Gallows Hill was a spot in Tallahassee where convicted folks would be put to death by hanging on a gallow. It is now the site of FSU’s Westcott Fountain.
