Interesting story from 1924, 88 years ago. People now are always saying how people do crazy things now in the news and it didn't happen with the older generations. It sounds like people were just as violent back then!
DuBois Morning Courier, March 5, 1924

H. A. Moore, prominent lawyer and Secretary of the DuBois Cemetery Company, was brutally assaulted yesterday morning in Rumbarger Cemetery by Special Officer Russell Love for the City of DuBois, and placed under arrest on a charge of assault and battery himself, and forced to spend an hour in the city lock-up, later being released for a hearing before Alderman D.
