I can understand the heat aspect. thought thinking aloud on that one . I think it was nice that they had Mary sit but it;s just seem ironic to have her sitting on the gallows. just an awkward thought,

They don't want them to pass out from the heat right before they hang them. That would be bad form.

oh ok that makews sence now got it.
Thanks
