Minister Threatened by Red Hand Society in Brooklyn
Rev William Sheafe Chase, a Bristol native and longtime church figure in Rhode Island and New York, has received a death threat from the Red Hand Society for opposing Sunday evening theatre performances in Brooklyn. He is under police protection at home in Williamsburg and while traveling. The note, dated March 7 1907, warns of an imminent attack and cites plans to ambush him at his door, reflecting the divided community response to theatre crackdowns. Also noted are DeWitt's Little Early Risers as a local remedy promotion.
