Governor Lee yesterday pardoned
George Wray, who was convicted OF
housebreaking and sent to tho peni-
tertiary in December. 1885, for
five years. This is the case in
which, last year, the wife and daughter
of the convict walked from their homo
in Franklin to put in plea for the
husbands pardon. The Governor, how
ever. saw no good reason Tor exercising
clemency and so refused it. After that
Wray became a physical wreck, and his
pardon is now granted on the recommen-
dation OF the peuitentiary surgeon, who
saws that Wray will probably never be
able to leave his bed.
