American Judge Assaulted By 100 Farmers In Crossroad Mob
A judge named Bradley was dragged from his courtroom by about one hundred farmers. They slapped, blindfolded, and carried him in a motor lorry to a nearby crossroad where a rope was placed around his neck and he was choked unconscious. The mob smeared grease on his face and stole his trousers after refusing to swear he would not sign more farm mortgage foreclosures. The incident followed a discussion at Bradleys Court over two mortgage foreclosure laws said to be unconstitutional. Foreclosure machinery across the west has been strained as farmers bid land and equipment at low prices at sales, returning items free of charge.
