Cullen

Cullen, a young man, was held in the jail at Marshfield, Missouri, when a mob took him from the jail and hanged him, according to a State Republican item published March 10, 1892. The same item reports the killing as a hanging by a mob. Cullen was a man, and the account gives his name and little else about him. The killing is recorded in the 1892 newspaper report.

Cause of death, as reported: Taken from custody and lynched. A short Missouri State News item says a mob took Cullen from the Marshfield jail and hanged him, and does not say whether jail staff resisted.

Reported by: Missouri State News (reporters).
