Lattimer Massacre

September 10, 1897

"It was not a battle because they were not aggressive, nor were they on the defensive because they had no weapons of any kind and were simply shot down like so many worthless objects; each of the licensed life takers trying to outdo the others in the butchery."

Dedicated to these union brothers who made the supreme sacrifice
