Leahy Agents Identify Suspect in Brownsville Incident
Mrs Leahy proprietor of the Leahy hotel Brownsville Texas testified to the Senate Military Affairs Committee that she could identify a former Black soldier among the group that fired on the town. From her hotel window about 40 feet away she saw 16 khaki clad men in Cowan alley, two of whom looked up and she described one as very black and the other mulatto. Her account aligns with a Company C soldier linked to trouble with Mr Tall, a customs inspector. A subpoena had been prepared for Tall but he remains unfound.
