William Gould's Mad Bull Raises Hell in Lynnfield MA 1906

A 2000 pound “maddened” bull escaped the slaughterhouse of William H Gould in Lynnfield, Massachusetts. The great bull hunt was made up of police and over 50 local men armed with guns, pistols, and revolvers (1906)

Although the bull terrorized hundreds until he was caught in Melrose Heights his main target was on selectmen George W Aboott. The Abbott family was big into butchery and the bull apparently had some scores to settle.
