The Molly Maguires, ten Irish immigrants who were labor activists, are hanged at Carbon County Prison in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. Author and Judge John P. Lavelle of Carbon County said of this,

A private police force arrested the alleged defenders, and private attorneys for the coal companies prosecuted them.
The state provided only the courtroom and the gallows."
