Mrs. Surratt's' NIurder-HOw II
r ze .C was Effected. 20

o. A New York paper says that portion
of the commission which tried Mrs. Sur
ratt signed paper recommending the COM
mutation of her sentence of death to i'm
prisonment for lite. The history of the
case is said to be as follows: After her
counsel had concluded his argument, Judge
Advocate Holt approached him and said /:
s'Although you and 1 may differ as to Mrs.
Surratt's innocence, have to say that your
effort has made a decided impression upon
the Court.1 When it came to make up its
findings, six of the members-Generals
Hunter, Ekin, Kautz, Foster, Tompkins
and Clendenin-were opposed to the death
sentence. The Assistant Judge Advocate,
Hon. John A. Bingham, argued the case in
the absence of her counsel, and finally the
Court passed the sentence. But before
leaving the table, a paper asking the COM
mutation was drawn up and signed by the
six Generals named. ia'-'l p

-ai Meantime, however, the work of regis
tration is going on throughout the whole
State, and to-day had an opportunity9of
seeing the process in practical operation at
the Atlanta Court House. The Board is
composed of two white men and one black,
and during my stay saw several scores of
both races made into voters. After several
white men had been sworn individually, a
batch of seven blacks was called up, and
Pompey. Caesarand Crassus were made cit
izens in the lump. 1t was curious spec
tacle. and one calculated to stir many re-
Elections. Standing in a row, they listened
very attentively to the reading of the oath,
some bending forward and others with
hand to the ear, the betterpto catch each

them to guffaw by a droll look whN3
he recited that part of it which makes
them swear that they had never held any

while, when he came to read the prohibi-
ton against registering by those who had
been disfranchised for felony, and explain
ed '.felony" by the gloss such as ''cow-
stealing" they were so struck by the droll-
cry of the interpretation that their bodies
| bent and swayed in uncomfortable merri-
ment. Throughout all the recital their
countenances showed desperate mental
effort to keep their s'holt'' of the meaning,
andiduring the reading of the main body
of the oath the effort was measurably sue
cessful; but when the registering officer
came TO where the formula speaks of "an
act supplementary to an act" the poor fell
