,Savannah Estate, charged with the murder of an-
other slave, named Thomas, the property of John
Holmes, Esq. by .burying It appeared
from the evidence, that.the parties were all" Co►l-
gees, and had made a ploy according tci the cus-
ton► of their country, when, Thomas dug a' grave
in Which he laid himself down, desiring his com-
panions to cover him np for the space of one hour;
but that, if he aid not rise.again in another place
in that time, they were to open the gra‘;e. Aber-
deen and Preston were appointed to close up the
grave, and Adam to, play on the gombah (African
m►ssic),'all of whiCh was punctually performed.—
. Some other negrovs belonging to the estate ap-
peared, however, before the ceremony Was COW,.
pletely finished, and had sense enough to open the
grave; but it Was too late, the unfortunate victim
of his own credul:ty being dead. His Honour the
Custos charged the jury, on the crinie, when they
found .them. guilty of iiians/aFfghter 5 and the'-fol-
lowing sentence 'was passed, viz. each to receive-,
30 lashes on the spot where the catatrophe took
