1889 Jan 11, Cynthia Samples

Scope and content:

Died by blows, licks, and other abuse from "Sife Gint" by unmercifully beating her with sticks, boards, or some other instrument. Age was not given, but depositions reference her having been a child. Although she appeared to have suffered with measles during the month prior to her death, most deponents believe her death was a result of having been beaten.
