Reprieved for Two Years.
ST. JonNsBURY, Mays.
Governor Fairbanks, after due consid-
Grafton Of all the rumors, statements, let
ters and petitions, in the case of John p.
Phair, who was to be executed on Friday
next, unless the governor interposed, this
afternoon decided to grant him another
reprieve from the 4th day of May, 1877,
until the last Friday in April 1879. The
full conditions CT the reprieve have not as
yet been made public.
This postponement fixes his execution
beyond the next session of the Legislature,
which body has the power TO pass an act to
grant him new trial, commute his sem
tence to imprisonment for life, or pardon,
as they may determine. The gov
ernor has been flooded with letters,
petitions, etc., asking for the postpone
ment. Many leading citizens from various
sections OF the state have personally visit
ed the governor in Phalr's behalf. A del
egstion from western Vermont vera on
their way here, but will probably learn of
the governors decision before their arrival
tonight
Judging from the mass of documents
and petitions, and the talk of the people
here, the whole state have been greatly in
terested in the case and in some quarters
much excitement has prevailed. Governor
Fairbanks and his secretary, MIR. Rankin,
have given the case careful consideration
in all the various forms in which it has
been presented, and under the circumstan-
ces surrounding the case, and the pub
lie feeling throughout the state, came
to the conclusion that he would be fully
justified in granting further reprieve, and
having exhausted all the power granted
him, no other course could be taken. but to
leave it to the legislature to dispose of the
case as they. in their wisdom, see fit. There
seems to be universal approval here of the
governors action. O.
