In somewhat sensational style, the <a title="Indianapolis Freeman" href="http://songswithoutwords.org/items/show/199">Indianapolis Freeman</a> depicted the mob scene, with insets showing the prisoner being removed from jail and lynched. The <a title="The Richmond Planet" href="http://songswithoutwords.org/items/show/204">Richmond Planet</a> noted in its own pages that the unmasked lynchers had murdered the innocent Mitchell in broad daylight: “No lynching in the South was ever more daring or atrocious.” Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource owproject Click Mitchell George L.

Washington’s suggestion that lynch victims were “invariably vagrants”—troublemakers who deserved their fate. Many African American newspapers expressed outrage that lynch law, in accepting the accusations of the lynchers without due process for the accused, violated fundamental tenets of American and English legal tradition. The <a title="Cleveland Gazette" href="http://songswithoutwords.org/items/show/197">Cleveland Gazette</a> used few illustrations generally; here, the “Not Guilty” headline, combined with a portrait of Click Mitchell while alive, emphasized the travesty of justice inherent in mob violence.
