Public whipping of a black man at Newcastle jail
A black man named Conley was publicly whipped in the Newcastle county workhouse yard for assaulting Mrs. Beatrice Franklah and her daughter two weeks earlier. The punishment, administered by Warden Mosorve with a long pine thong, involved thirty blows. He bore the agony without a tremor and received a half century of imprisonment afterward. No blood was drawn, but welts marked his back from shoulder to waist.
