On July 26, 1873, a man called Jefferson Davis was beaten, shot, and dragged through the streets of Ragersville, Ohio, before finally being hung by a lynch mob. A regional villain became a legend that night in what may be the most heinous crime in the county's history. This is the true story about the lynching that occurred in a quiet little German-Swiss community of farmers and Amish folk. The story of a man that survives on today through folklore and still refuses to stay buried.
