Great stuff there. Thanks for posting.
 
I too immediately went in search of what an espantoon looked liked.

The first part of the article makes Baltimore today seem like a really peaceful, pleasant place to live.:D:D:D:D:D

And, in spite of all the mis-spelling the word is espOntoon, with an "O", not A. Look it up!

Just a fancy name for a "billie club" aka "night stick", that was common police issue until the Monadnock Prosecutor was introduced in the 1970s.
