1t was not that the officers and troops

fast as they would charge and disperse a
part of the mob in one street it would
gether in another and the riot and mas

Wherever Moslem was found he was
struck down and beaten with clubs and
hacked with knives, and the crowd surged
through the narrow streets to find fresh
