,ic, Mexican this morning passed sentence
mon Thos. Hawkins, the polygamist, as
follows
"Thos Hawkins, | am sorry for you
rsry sorry You may not think now, but
shall make you think so by the mercy
which | shall show you, that you came
from England to this country with the
vile ofyOur youth. For many years you
we're O kind husband and kind father.
At length, however, the evil spirit of
polyglmy tempted and possessed you.
Then happiness departed from your
household, and now, by the complaint OF
your faithful wife and the verdict Ofa law
abiding jury, you stand at this bar a con.
yicled criminal, The laws give me u
rse discretion in passing sentence upon
yoo lmght both fine and imprlSon you,
OF might fine you only, or imprlSon. l
might inprisOn you for twenty years and
hneyOu $1,000. | cannot imprison you
br les than three years, nor fine you
eis than 1890, 1t Is rightl that you
Iaoull be fined, among other reasons, to
beIp 10 deIray the expenses of enforcing
lhe laws, butt experience in such has
been such that were | to fine you only, |
An satisfied the fine would be paid out OF
other funds than yours, and thus you go
lrsc, absolutely free from all punishment
lnd then those men whO.mislead the peo.
pie would make you and thousands Of
others believe that God had sent the
money to pay the fine; that GOl had pre-
vented the court from sending you to
prison, that by II marICle you had been
rescued from the authorities of the United
States; must look to 1t that my judge.
menl give no aid and comfort to such
men, | must look to ii that my judgment
be not so severe as to seem indicative
and so light as to seem 10 tritle with jus.
Iice This community ought TO begin to
learn that God does not interpose to
rescue criminals from the consequences OF
their crimes, but on the contrary lie 30
orders the affairs of bis Universe that
sooner or later crime stands face TO face
with Justice and just Us the master, l
will Say here and now that whenever
your good behavior and the public good
'hAI justify me in doing so | will gladly
recommend that you be pardOned. The
Judgment ol the court Is that you be
fined five hundred dollars and that you
be Imprisoned at hard labor for The term
Of three years"
Contrary tOall expectations there was
IIIiIeor no excitement in the court room.
IheaIIendance was large, but generally
maintained proper deCorum. The U. y.
Aanhals and deputies were fully prepar.
81 IoF any emergency. Notice of appeal
oshe Supreme Court was given by the
prisoners counsel.
