An 1882 editorial in the Morning Appeal says a man in Indiana was taken out of jail by a mob and riddled with bullets. The paper gives no name, date, or jail for him, and it offers the killing as a passing opinion rather than a reported event.

Cause of death, as reported: Taken from custody and lynched

Reported by: Morning Appeal editorial (reporters).
