Chinaman Gets 20 Lashes After False Escape Attempt
In Auburn years ago a Chinaman stole $15 from a store, was chased to the Justice's Office, and condemned to receive twenty lashes. The Chinese crowd hired lawyer B F Myres for $100, appealing the verdict, and the sheriff was told to delay. The wry exchange ended with the sheriff’s remark about the old punishment.
