Three black men from the James Robinson Circus are in jail in Duluth, Minnesota, USA, accused of raping a teenage girl. Although a physician's examination found no evidence of rape or assault, a mob breaks them out of jail and lynches them. Postcards with pictures of the hanging will be sold as souvenirs. This incident will serve as the setting of Bob Dylan's epic 1965 song Desolation Row. [Dylan's father was living in Duluth at the time of the lynchings].
