'Thurmond and J. M. Holmes, | confessed kidnapers and slay- | ers of Brooke L. Hart, 22, son of a wealthy San Jose mer- \chant, 100 yards down the |street to St. James Park , where both were badly beaten lalmost to unconsciousness, | stripped naked and strung up. Thurmond fainted and was unconscious when he was hzmgvd. Fight Crowd Holmes resisted and man- jaged to throw the rope off his neck but it was forced back and he was run up into the air kicking to the jeers {of a crowd estimated at 6,000 | persons Sheriff William Emig was | taken unconscious to a hos- | pital, beaten about the head. The lynchers first took the wrong man from the jail. The jail was reduced to wreckage. Eight-inch pipes, stripped from the partially completed new Post Office Building, were used for battering rams. Deputy police and special officers fought fiercely to overcome the mob. The bodies were left hanging, ten | feet off the ground. Bodies Cut Down After the bodies had hung for |some time the lifeless forms were cut down. The mob was satisfied |and there was no further attempt {to interfere with the officers. Autos were parked across the alleys about the jail but they did little to impede the advances of the beseigers. Attack Started Two shots were fired from the crowd early last night and this signal started the first attack on the jail. A barrage of rocks clat- tered against the jail walls. Officers within the jail let loose with three tear gas bombs. These blinded the attackers and they fell back. At this time a were about the jail The officers in the jail sent out a call for more tear gas All lights within the extinguished Attack Renewed With the blinding tear gas from the first three bombs still hanging crowd of 3,000 jail were about the jall building, a second attack began.
