Archie Jameson
Archie Jameson was held in the jail at Springfield, Robertson County, Tennessee, along with Jack Bell. On the night of September 14, 1880, a masked mob broke into the jail, put both men on horses and took them a few miles into the country, where they hanged them from a tree, according to the Batesville Guard and the American Citizen. A Sadlersville paper, the South Kentuckian, gave the place of the hanging as near the railroad and named the man as Arch Jameson. Whether jail officers resisted the mob or handed the men over is not stated in these accounts.
Cause of death, as reported: Taken from custody and lynched. A masked mob broke into the Springfield jail in Robertson County, Tennessee, took Archie Jameson out on horseback and hanged him from a tree, according to the American Citizen.
