Mob Hangs Murderer After Delayed Troop Arrival
In Crystal Springs on June 25 a mob of about 400 seized Toha M. Brosea who killed an elderly man named Strong. With no troops due to Jackson, the mob strung him to a tree and tied a rope as earlier others were whipped and punished for alleged blasphemy. The mob then hunted a local preacher who swore Brosea innocent, whipping him for swearing. By press time the mob had dispersed and farmers returned home.
