McCabe - Charles - dynamite bomb

Source: Crawfordsville Weekly Journal Friday, 3 May 1901
 
A special from Covington says: “This afternoon a daughter of Attorney Charles McCabe found a dynamite bomb in the yard of his home. It was constructed of a piece of gas pipe fourteen inches in length and filled with three sticks of nitroglycerin, with a cap and fuse attached. The fuse had been lighted and gone out. When examined, the bomb was found to be of a dangerous nature, and where it came from is a mystery. The affair will be investigated. Mr. McCabe knows of no enemy that would harm him or endanger the life of his family. He is a son of ex-Judge McCabe, of Williamsport, and one of the prominent attorneys of the city.
