1906 Brownsville Raid / Brownsville Affray / Brownsville Affair August 13-14

Could this be the "tough element" with bad intentions....

From typewritten interview notes by Ralph Schmeling 
"Letters Exchanged between Joseph W. Parks and Ralph Schmeling concerning Negro Raid"


This photo has appeared in a few books but none have an inkling of who these men were.  They assume they were locals but it appears that they were not.  Just a few good ol' boys looking for live targets they can kill without consequence.
