    3. On July 10, 1815, William P. Maulsby, who would become a judge of The Frederick County Circuit Court, was born in Harford County. He died October 3, 1894, in Westminster. On July 10, 1936, the highest temperature ever recorded in Maryland occurred in Frederick when the thermometer reached 109 degrees. On July 10, 1936, Reuben A. Hann, Frederick City's last surviving Civil war veteran, died. On July 10, 1953, three men robbed the People's Bank of Libertytown of $14,950, and escaped south on MD 26 through Frederick. They were caught after their car crashed at South Market and All Saints Street after traveling the wrong way on Market Street. All were sentenced - eventually - to 20 years in jail.
