The lynching of an Arab (Syrian from Zahleh) man in Florida in 1929

This is from May 18, 1929, the New York Times.  I learned of this case of lynching from Sarah Gualtieri, Between Arab and White: Race and Ethnicity in the Early Syrian American Diaspora, (University of California Press, 2009).  The author devoted a chapter to the case and reported that the man, who had immigrated from Zahleh, was flogged by KKK thugs prior to the lynching.
