On this day in 1860, abolitionist Methodist minister Anthony Bewley was lynched in Fort Worth.
Bewley, born in Tennessee in 1804, had established a mission sixteen miles south of Fort Worth by 1858. When vigilance committees alleged in the summer of 1860 that there was a widespread abolitionist plot to burn Texas towns and murder their citizens, suspicion immediately fell upon Bewley and other outspoken critics of slavery.
Special attention was focused on Bewley because of an incendiary letter, dated July 3, 1860, addressed to a Rev. William Bewley and supposedly written by a fellow abolitionist. Many argued that the letter, which urged Bewley to continue with his work in helping to free Texas from slavery, was a forgery. The letter was widely published, however, and taken by others as evidence of Bewley’s involvement with the John Brownites in Texas.
Recognizing the danger, Bewley left for Kansas in mid-July with part of his family. A Texas posse caught up with him near Cassville, Missouri, and returned him to Fort Worth on September 13th. Late that night vigilantes seized Bewley and delivered him into the hands of a waiting lynch mob.
His body was allowed to hang until the next day, when he was buried in a shallow grave. Three weeks later his bones were unearthed, stripped of their remaining flesh, and placed on top of Ephraim Daggett’s storehouse, where children made a habit of playing with them.

The mistress would have taken the 5th on every question.  A waste of time by both sides, dismissed.  Not necessarily, it would have made a point as to why she needed to do so.

Will January 6 be buried like the JFK assassination?

Thom Hartmann September 15, 2023

https://www.rawstory.com/raw-investigates/jfk-assination/

“Remember, it was the military that apparently refused to go along with Trump’s plan for them to seize voting machines and help him overturn the election and appoint himself dictator-for-life.

Is Tuberville holding those seats open for a second Trump term so Trump can appoint leaders to our military who will go along with the next seditious attempt?”

"It’s been 60 years since JFK was murdered, and we still don’t know the whole story. We can’t afford to wait 60 years to find out who was in on the attempt to overthrow our government on January 6th.

Americans deserve some answers."

Dominican Republic closes all borders with Haiti as tensions rise on island both countries share

https://apnews.com/article/dominican-republic-haiti-border-closed-abinader-a8e763730d674fc840b4ea33d50ebe23

DAJABON, Dominican Republic (AP) — “The Dominican Republic shut all land, air and sea borders with Haiti on Friday over a dispute about construction of a canal on Haitian soil, as armed Dominican soldiers patrolled entry points and military planes roared overhead.”

"Officials from the two countries met on Wednesday to discuss the situation, and were still meeting on Thursday when Abinader announced he would close all borders on Friday, prompting the Haitian government to criticize what it called a “unilateral” decision.

“Clearly, Abinader is overreacting to what is now a diplomatic incident,” Da Rin said, noting that Abinader confirmed last month he is running for re-election. “Maybe Abinader thinks this is a way to portray himself as a strong nationalist leader who will be the only one ... able to really stop the ‘Haitian invasion’ as he always calls the growing migration influx.”

Abinader announced this week that he has stopped issuing visas to Haitians and closed the border near the town of Dajabon. He also has pushed to limit the number of Haitians migrating to the Dominican Republic and has expelled tens of thousands of them and those of Haitian descent. His administration has started building a 118-mile (190-kilometer) wall along the Haitian border that he announced early last year.

Abinader said his administration is still in conversation with Haiti’s government but insisted that work on the canal must stop. Haitian officials have said the project will continue.”
