On this date in 1931, Andrew D'Amato,the twenty-four year old proprietor of The Bible Club,
a Harlem speakeasy, was put on the spot.
Three bullets had been fired into his skull and then a
tablecloth was wrapped around his head to prevent a bloody mess. His body was
then loaded into a car, driven outside of the city and tossed out near
Mt. Vernon where a passing milkman found him early in the morning.
"He must have done something. They don't kill you for nothing." - Chicago Gangster Ted Newberry. Rubbed out January 7, 1933
