This is what I found re: William Wallace:

"Wallace was taken from the hall to the Tower of London, then stripped naked and dragged through the city at the heels of a horse to the Elms at Smithfield. He was hanged, drawn and quartered—strangled by hanging, but released while he was still alive, emasculated, eviscerated (with his bowels burned before him), beheaded, then cut into four parts. Wallace's head was dipped in tar and placed on a spike atop London Bridge.

I have no problem with this being done publicly to the murderer of 18-year old Henry Nowak.

My recollection was correct then. Thank you.

From what I remember, part of him was displayed at Berwick. (Sp?)
