Eighteenth year assault on New Orleans mob ends in lynching
The Eleven Clatinns charged with murdering Chief of Police Hennessy were hung and shot after a jury allegedly bribed, in a mass vigilante action by thousands of New Orleans citizens. The mob overwhelmed the jail, executed ten in the yard and hanged one in a public tree, as crowds streamed from Bienville and Royal streets.
