, LYNCHING IN NEVADA.
Murderer Taken Out of jail. Stripped and
Hanged.

Carson. Nevada, Dec. adam
Uber, who killed Hans Anderson at
Gardnerville last week, was taken from
the Genoa jail at n. M, stripped of
his clothing and hanged. His body
was riddled with bullets by an angry
mob of twenty-five men supposed to be
from Gardnerville.
When taken from his cell the victim
had nothing on but a shirt. This was
torn off by the lynchers and the nude
body left dangling in the air for six
hours. As the body was being pulled
UP the mob riddled it with bullets.
When satisfied that the man was dead,
the vigilantes dispersed and returned
to their homes.
At the hour above mentioned the
leader of the mob presented himself at
the side window of the county jail and
calling to Sheriff Brockliss, stated that
the Gardnerville constable had arrived
with a prisoner he wished to have
locked up. The sheriff was some time
in responding and the mob, impatient
at the delay, battered down the door
of the recorders office with sledge-ham-
