Morg Andrews
Morg Andrews was brought from Kansas to Warrensburg, Missouri, on a requisition from the Governor and was held in the custody of the sheriff there. According to a Philadelphia Inquirer report reprinted in the Juniata Sentinel in June 1867, a party of about 200 men took him from the sheriff and hanged him. The reprint attributes the killing to the Vigilance Committee of Johnson County. A later letter reprinting the same Philadelphia report, dated June 3, 1867, gives the same account of a mob of about two hundred men taking him from the sheriff and hanging him.
