Saladino
Saladino was held in the new brick jail at Hahnville, the seat of St. Charles Parish, Louisiana, when a mob came for him on August 8, 1896. According to a New Orleans news dispatch printed in The Bolivar Bulletin, about fifty armed people overpowered the night guard, broke down the jail doors, and took him and two other men to a stable, where they were hanged. The dispatch says the men were given two minutes to pray before the crowd shot their bodies. The lynchers were not recognized, and the dispatch says they may have come from St. Gabriel.
