DR.. James Swanson of Willow CITY,
who returned to his home from Will
N. D., where he visited several
weeks, was an eye witness to q por-
ton Of the proceedings incident to
the recent lynching of CIeve CuIbert-
and he makes the startling asser-
ton that the mob worked about the
county jail fully forty-fve minutes
before departing with their prisoner.
Swanson was attracted to the
by loud noises, and he had ap-
preached within 200 feet of the Jail
when he found himself confronted by
three masked men, who, pointing re-
at him, ordered him to depart
from the scene. Swanson made a de-
and gained a point of vantage
from which he viewed the work of the
mob. The Willow City physician is
firm in his contention that the lynch
ers were at the Jail nearly an hour.
