MOB THIRSTS FOR BLOOD
Ohio White Man Narrowly Escapes Lynching for Assault on Girl.
MARRIETTA, Ohio - Nov. 3 - John Sweeney, a married man,
35 years old, narrowly escaped lynching from a mob seeking revenge
for his assault on Anna Koon, a 14 year old girl, this
afternoon. Sweeney, who is the father of five children,
was caught with the child in one of the buildings on the Fair
Grounds, which is situated in the residence district, where a crowd
quickly collected, and binding him with a rope, started for the
Muskingum River, bent on throwing him in.
The police arrived in time to rescue him and fought the
crowd back to the police station, where order was restored by
level-headed citizens. The girl is in a precarious condition. |
