The SHORTEST SENTENCE.-The
81. Louis Republic in 'Notes for The
Curious gives an account of the
shortest sentences of imprisun-
ment ever pronounced in senienc-
ing criminals, and gives in this
country that Of a Maine Judge who
sentenced man TO Imprisonment
for one hour, and says that was
over-shadowed by anEnglish judge
who sentenced a woman to five
minutes in Jail, for having mar
ried a man without his obtaining a
divorce from a former wife.
Both these sentences were COM
pletely LAID in the shade by one
pronounced by Judge Wiley Z.
Harris when holding court in
Smith county, Miss, many years
ago. Mrs. Garvin was convicted
by a jury of cowhiding a man
named Hendrix. Harris imposed
a fine of one cent and a sentence
of one minutes imprisonment.
