Indian Revolutionary Khudiram Bose
Khudiram Bose was the youngest ever Indian Revolutionary from Bengal who was hanged at the age of eighteen for his role in India's Struggle for Independence. The English judge Woodman was very surprised as he looked at him because of his young age. He got very attached to Khudiram Bose during the course of trial and helped Khudiram's lawyer to meet him on few occasions, even sending vegetarian food of good quality. The judge Woodman never gave the verdict on the trial.
Khudiram played a prank on the Sepohi who took him to gallows. When he was asked his last wish Khudiram said to Sepohi that he would like to have mangoes. The Sepohi was not aware that Khudiram already had four mangoes, the last night. When the mangoes were brought they looked that they were not eaten as they were ballooned by Khudiram. Khudiram started laughing as Sepohy got embarrassed. The brave Khuidiram Bose was not scared even minutes before he was hanged. No doubt the rulers wanted to get rid of him at this tender age.
