representative to congress, and suggests the
necessity to devise some measure 10 collect the
sense Of this county with regard 10 the removal
Of the scat Of justice, and adds, g ,s is :ft over
for us TO make free choice Of orr asSembiyntn."
He further states that f such are sent forward
who approve the measure, it will be enacted
into a law. Will those two subjects harmon

ample testimony Of the correctness of thu YER
dict. A rope was tied around the body, TO which
another " as attached, having tAvo stones (veigh-
ing abou. sixty poundsl suspended theret, the
feet were also bound by rope, and wounls, in
iilcted by the contents of gun or other fire arm
loaded with buck shot, were found in the shoul-
ders, neck and head. Two men, whose names
