THE PRISONERS SENTENCED.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon the
eight convicted prisoners were brought
into court and received their SEN
fences. This unpleasant duty is no
empty ceremony with Judge Ryland,
but the words he speaks he evidently
feels, and hardened indeed must be
the prisoner who does not for time
at least, feel the irresistible longing
for a better life, and, who, if his
heart and soul are not utterly dead.
scared and calloused by long career
of crime, retires to his prison cell
with words echoing and ringing in his
ears which he will not forget through
out all of his cherries imprisonment
behind iron bars.
When Emmett King was called for
ward to receive his sentence, he ad-
vanced with unfaltering step and gave
the most respectful attention to the
words of the Judge. The sentence
was brief, solemn and impressive and
contained many words of wholesome
advice, which it is TO be hoped the
misguided young man will not soon
forget. The judge said that he re-
GREETED exceedingly to be compelled
to utter the words which, for a
time, must sever young
man from home and all that
renders lie worth the living,
but that the prisoner was young and
vet might be able TO make a useful
man. He besought him to remember,
when he was released from confne-
ment that the crime for which he now
pays the penalty may be forgiven,
but never forgotten, and therefore,
he could not be too careful of his flu
ture course in life; TO avoid evil as
sociates to live down the mistake
and disgrace of youth and with firm
resolution to eschew the evil things
which have brought to him such bit
ter sorrow and humiliation, press
forward to the goal Of a useful and
honorable manhood.
The prisoner bowed his head in
silent assent and resumed his seat
wearing a thoughtful countenance,
but the expression of a man who has
determined to bravely bear the fate
which his own evil acts has brought
upon him.
