Died in jail or a lockup
Name not reported
One of three Italian nationals held in the jail at Halinville, Louisiana, was taken from the jail by a mob and killed. The killings happened about a year before the Stark County Democrat reported them in August 1897. The United States later paid an indemnity to Italy's charge in Washington, Count Vinci, for the killings.
