HISTORICAL INACCURACY ALERT!!!!
A 1754 hanging would be performed in the short drop method via death by strangulation and only manual power (people pulling on your legs) would break the neck. Long drop and trapdoor executions were introduced by an English executioner after the 1850s.
Up your execution game if you're going to write a historical novel.
