On November 6, 1882, a group of men broke into a jail, forced the jailer to open the door, and took four prisoners who had been brought there from Jackson Parish for safekeeping. Two of the four were later found about a mile and a half south of town, shot and riddled with bullets, according to the Sacramento Daily Record-Union. Neither man is named in the account. The jailer is said to have opened the door under the mob's threat, and the paper gives no other detail about how the men were killed.
Cause of death, as reported: Taken from custody and lynched. A group of men broke into the jail, forced the jailer to open the door, and took four prisoners; two were later found dead about a mile and a half south of town, riddled with bullets.
