Died in jail or a lockup
Name not reported
This person was one of three men a mob took from a jail in Texas and hanged in November 1900, according to a yearly chronology printed in the Crittenden Press. No name, age, or exact day is given, so nothing else about who they were can be said from this account. The chronology does not say how the jail's staff responded to the mob. The death is recorded here as a lynching from custody on the strength of that one secondhand account.
Cause of death, as reported: Taken from custody and lynched
Reported by: Crittenden Press yearly chronology (reporters).
