THE RUSSELL COUNTY NEWS, Russell, Kansas, January 30, 1948
* Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi assassinated
* The Mahatma (1st report)
This 4 page newspaper has a three column headline on the front page: "Mohandas K. Gandhi Assassinated by Fanatic" with subhead: "Death of India's Great Spiritual Leader Causes Rioting to Break Out immediately"
This is a very early report on the same day of his assassination as most newspapers were dated the 31st with the first reports concerning his death.
