ter is from Charles Feinberg of the

this address on May goth that Dav-
id Lax (white) met his death from
a brick hurled at him by Robert
Muckle of 1915 CONNER Street.
With such great speed was Niue
kle captured that it drew comment
from the local white newspapers
on the work of the two colored
officers. The letter from Feinberg
also contained a check for 500 as
reward for the capture of the as
sailant which was paid to Rasse-
berry and Perry.
