Descriptive text accompanying the illustration reads as follows: “The
above snapshot of Leon Czolgosz, the notorious assassin of the late President
McKinley, shows the peculiar sneering, defiant expression that his countenance
continually assumes. He wore this sneer throughout the trial and, observers
say, will carry it with him to the execution chair.”
