This postcard, addressed to Dr. J.W.F. Williams,
LaFayette, Christian County, Kentucky documents the sentiments of one lunchtime
spectator. "Well John - This is a token of a great day we had in Dallas, March 3, a negro was hung for an assault on a three year old girl. I saw this on my noon hour. I was very much in the bunch. You can see the negro hanging on a telephone pole. " |
