Description
Port Williams Assaults Constable Gresham - - Port Williams, one of the Parkville negroes who plead guilty to shooting craps Thursday of last week, was arrested Saturday night for assaulting Constable J. F. Gresham at Parkville.
The constable arrested Williams and brought him to Platte City and Williams was mad and Saturday night assaulted Gresham with a loaded cane.
We are informed that there are a lot of ornery negroes at Parkville, who, backed up by ornery white people, are insolent and insulting.
If this is the case these negroes should be handled promptly so as not to allow them to outgrow their usefulness.Date(s) of Creation
