He WAS KNOWN AS REBEL GEORGE

Robbery at Seattle, WASH
inutnn


Yankton. June 9.-Harvey w, Knowl-
ION. noted as Rebel George and of
whom recent press dispatches from Sc
atttle, Wash. tell of attempted robbery
him by a man named Mellon, when
Rebel George deliberately turned on
his assailant, disarmed him and nearly
killed him, is well remembered in Yank-
ton by some of the pioneer citizens. The
circumstances which brought him here
are as follows:
In the summer OF 1875 Harvey w.
Knowlton vas a three-card ont sharp
in the Black Hills country. He had for
a companion a man named Mike O'Neil,
or Little Mike" One day they encoun-
tered an emigrant named David Ranck,
was crossing the plains, and after
swindling him became involved in a
quarrel with him, and Knowlton shot
and killed him. Knowlton was brought
to Yankton for trial before the United
States court for murder. Bartlett Trip
defended him and Peter c. Shannon.
now of Canton. was United States
Judge. Upon the first trial Knowlton
was convicted. and when the verdict
announced he arose from his chair
and charged upon the court. threatening
to kill his honor, but was restrained by
officers. A new trial was granted and
knowlton was acquitted. h occurred
in 1876. A year later Knowlton vas sent
to the penitentiary in either Kansas or
Missouri for killing another man. Thus
IL will be seen that he had earned a
reputation for killing which the fellow
in Seattle was probably not aware of.

IN Mrs. T. NJ. G. Gaumer. was hanged
to a tree IN the court house ard at 7:2O
his morning. The mob was composed
of citizens who made no attempt at con-
aealnlent of the act.
The sensational and unfort,,nata
events of last night which inmate
in the militia firing upon the crowd sur
rounding the Jail, killing two and
wounding six other men, intensified the
feeling against Mitchell until the deter
mination was made general that he
should never leave town alive.
After firing on the crowd Governor
bushnell ordered Company B of the
Third infantry from Springfield. They
arrived at 7I0 and marched to the Jail.
where they found 1000 people %surrounI-
ing the structure.
The mayor assured the commander
that their services We're not wanted, SIS
the people Were law abiding, and asked
them to withdraw to the train, n in
Ease their services Were needed he would
rcnd for them. Without waiting for
further orders, they marched down the
street to the Gepot. The local militia
had previously refused to serve longer
ind went to the second story of th-
tr eriff's# residence and tried to sleep.
With no resistance offered the mob
pushed to the side DOR and soon gained
entrance to the Jail n broke the door
TO Mitchell's cell. He offered no resist
nnce as the rope was placed over his
head. Going down the steps outside the
Jail Mitchell fell. and the rope was
stripped off his neck, The crowd sur
rounded him n jumped on him like
a thousand hungry dogs after one bone.
The wretch was almost kicked to death
before the rope was again secured about
his neck. He was dragged to the front
Of the court house and the 1ope thrown
over a limb and the brute pulled up. The
end was tied to the fence, and Mitchell
was left hanging in full Wow of sarera,
thousand people. The body was left
there over an hour before placed in an
