A Righteous Act.

Gov. Jackson Yesterday received a
number oil petitions from various per-
sons in Taylor and Harrison counties,
requesting him TO pardon VIM. Parsons,
a Young man ~ years of age, who had
been sent to the penitentiary in 1879
from Harrison county for house break
ing. 1t appears that man named
Mail and another named Grassland, and
it is alleged that Parsons was with them
and broke into a shoe shop in Bridge
port, Harrison county, and stole a
quantity OF shoes and leather. Mail and
Parsons were captured and sent up for
four years and six months each. Mail
escaped, and as Grassland was never ar
rested, Parsons wac left to serve opr his
sentence alone. II now appears that
very grave doubts OF the guilt
existed at the time OF his conviction,
and these have been strengthened
by later developments. He has also de-
velopcd consumption, and is dying 10y
inches in prison, while his family are
suffering all the agony possible under
the circumstances. Al the time OF his
sentence Parsons WAS only nineteen
wears OF aye, aud hc has already served
two years. None OF the goods we're
found upon him when captured. GOV.
Jackson thought that the case was bad
one, and he could think OF no way by
which he could make happier Franks
giving for the Parsons family than by
sending home their son.
