Today in 1862, authorities in Texas hand 14 jailed pro-Union citizens over to a mob to be hanged. More than 40 will eventually be put to death for treason, many without trial. The Great Hanging of Gainesville is remembered as one of the worst acts of mob violence in U.S. history https://t.co/oK9VG0AGfZ
