X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>There are three documented cases of lynchi
 ng in Montgomery County: George Peck and John Diggs-Dorsey in 1880 and Sid
 ney Randolph in 1896. The victims were all Black men in their twenties\, t
 wo accused of rape and one accused of murder. Ahead of any legal convictio
 n\, they were each removed from custody in the middle of the night and kil
 led by groups of White men\, having never received a fair trial. Based on 
 the recent compilation of hundreds of digitized newspaper accounts\, resea
 rcher Sarah Hedlund presents comprehensive narratives on these three cases
 . Each man&rsquo\;s story is supported by quotes\, in-person reporting\, p
 eriod maps\, photographs\, and genealogical research\, in remembrance and 
 recognition of this darker side of Montgomery County&rsquo\;s history. Thi
 s program is presented in partnership with Montgomery History.</p>\n<p><st
