At which point in the story does the reader learn that Farquhar has died?

The story reveals Farquhar’s fate in its final sentence: he has been hanged, and his body swings beneath the Owl Creek bridge. Until then, the escape sequence in Part III seems real, but it is a fantasy occurring in the final moments before his death. The correct choice is the last sentence of Part III.
