He was strung up to the same tree that Seymour was partly hung on, but did not get oflt' as well as Seymour did. Sheriff Dixon, the lawful Sheriff of the county, was in AVeaverville at the time, but such was the force of public opinion that he was power- less to act. Peoj)le placed very little reliance in the civil law. The countv government Avas vet in its infancy, ^o jails to safely keep prisoners in, no court-house to trv them in, and the civil law itself held in contempt by many. Such was t...he state of affairs when Grant was hanged. I believe he was the last victim of Judge Lvnch in Trinitv countv. There were other executions, but they were done by the laws of the land. There were some doubts in the minds of a few Avhether Grant was guilty of the crime for which he x^aid the penalty with his life.
