The St. Paul Daily Globe’s front page for 15 March 1891 carries an account of the killings inside the Parish Prison, including how individual prisoners died and how Bagnetto was hanged from a tree, and says Parkerson addressed the crowd after the killings. It is followed by a section titled “Roster of Avengers: List of the Signers of the Memorable Call to Arms,” naming the citizens who signed the call to the mass meeting.
The signers are not repeated here because the OCR is unreliable and some may be private persons. The graphic account is the paper’s, and the description here is limited to what the page states. The section title is the paper’s own and is quoted, not endorsed.
