Description


Taken from county jail and lynched by Bisbee mob, February 22, 1884. He was called the leader of the five men who were legally hanged and was said to have planned the robbery. He was hanged from a telegraph pole a short distance west of the Court House. Thank you for commenting and viewing my last upload! I appreciate it very much. Have a great day!

Thank you for the fine picture and the entertaining story. :) PS - toddaking, don't worry, I think they had to be mean to someone to get their attention. Foolish probably wouldn't count, as far as hanging goes.
