had been accomplished without any further deed of blood
than the hanging of the guilty man. it would be hard to
blame the people Pierce for their action but unforu
natey the reports true aged negro was burned
alive by the firing of his house-the mob being possibly
ignorant of his presence in it,
Except for the cruel injustice of furnishing the innocent
