Berrara

A Denison dispatch printed in the Portland Daily Press on February 3, 1881, says masked men took Berrara from a jail on the Sunday night before the report and hanged him, along with two other men. The dispatch places the killing in Denison, and it names no other details about Berrara's life. Berrara was held in the jail when the mob took him, and the sheriff's and jailer's part in the events is not described in the account.

Cause of death, as reported: Taken from custody and lynched. A Denison special dispatch printed in the New Orleans report says masked men took Berrara from the jail and hanged him.

Reported by: Denison special dispatch (New Orleans report) (reporters).
