Description: Cincinnati, OHIO - Main & Court Streets - Hamilton County Court House: The Hamilton County Courthouse is located in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio and contains the Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, the Municipal Court, Small Claims Court, and the Clerk of Courts offices. The present courthouse is the fourth courthouse constructed on the site. The second courthouse was destroyed in the Cincinnati riots of 1884. That courthouse is shown in this card, as reflected in the notation on the card's reverse. The Hamilton County Courthouse is connected to the county jail, the Hamilton County Justice Center, via a skybridge. The Cincinnati riots of 1884, also known as the Cincinnati Courthouse riots, were caused by public outrage over the decision of a jury to return a verdict of manslaughter in what was seen as a clear case of murder. A mob in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States, attempted to find and lynch the perpetrator. In the violence that followed over the next few days, more than 50 people died and the courthouse was destroyed. It was one of the most destructive riots in American history. This Linen Era (1930-45) postcard is in good condition but shows some edge wear. Home Novelty Co. Cincinnati, O.
