a MrRDERER DECLINES \ RESPITE
The Manassas Gazette states that Major
Wv. Thornton, of .Brentsvillc, Prince
William county, Wa received letter
from Governor Kemper, few DAYS ago.
stating that application had been made
to him TO respite, jesse .Fouks. senten.
ced to be hung to-day, the 10Th in.
slant, for the murder of the Herndon
family, and requesting him to see the
condemned man and ascertain if he
could, if such respite would be advisa.
BILE. Major Thornton visited Fouke and
held conversation with him, in which
he reiterated his guilt, and said he
thought he ought to be hung.
On being informed that an effort was
being made to put Off his execution for
q short time, Fou!,s said that he did
not desire it to be put off, but wished
the time was nearer at hand" He prays
almost continually in his waking hours,
night and day, but still says he has no
evidence of forgiveness from God for
the crime he has committed. Fouks was
visited on Tuesday of last week by n
physician of Fauquier county, who re.
quested the prisoner to give him his DO.
dy after the execution, to which the con.
demned man readily consented, stating
that 1t would be taken up by some doc
tor, anyhow. He said he cared nothing
FOR the body so he could save his soul.
