If we believed in Hanging. we should certainly
make great exertons to get this negros sentence
commuted for the credit of our cause. As it is,
though we hope his sentence may be commuted,
we can't help seeing that the choking to death OF
this poor, deuded simpleton will go great way
toward making the Gallows as detested as 1t
should be. Totake an ignorant outcasts life in
cold blood with due parade OF Magisterial and
Clerical attendance, because he attempted, in his
drunken insanity, TO burn a house, while those
who soberly made him drunk and impelled him to
the crime go unscathed, is one of the most
striking examples of what goes for Justice that
we have recently noted So if the advocates OF
Hanging choose to let this man be hung, so be it.
