    Anamosa Eureka, June 27, 1862

    AN OUTRAGE-We are informed that a man named George McDonald, living in Wayne
Township, Jones County, was taken from his house, Wednesday night the 18th, by a
gang of men and tarred and feathered. The only reason for the act was owing to
some trouble about a line of fence, and we are further informed that the outrage
was perpetrated by men hired for the purpose. We hope steps will be immediately
taken to ferret out the guilty persons and bring them to justice. We understand
a reward of $50 is offered for their apprehension and conviction.
