…never happened.

"A small, unobtrusive monument on the roadside of Route 70, immediately north of the Manasquan River, caught the eye of a local historian, Joseph Bilby.

The waist-high stone plinth with a bronze plaque is seldom viewed, other than in passing by motorists. But the curious historian stopped and decided to research what the monument commemorated.

The story that unfolded about Monmouth County shows that during the Revolutionary War this sleepy county was a vigilante paradise. This particular monument was erected in 1927 by the governor of New Jersey and celebrates a lynching, or does it?…."
