Description:
Bail was set extremely high for all arrested, averaging $800 per person. The Free Church received donations of around $50,000.
Each day the checks and money were picked up at the Church, brought up to Jock Brown's house and counted by his wife and children.
Then Brown, York or Melinda took the money to the Bank of America, where they were allowed to deliver it directly to an official.
