EXECUTIVE cLEMESCY REFUSED.
Governor O'Ferrall declined to grant
pardon yesterday TO George II. Evy, who
was sentenced in October, 1880, I'm the
Shenandoah County Court to seven years
Imprisonment in the penitentiary for
horse-stealing. His term will expire on
November l3. 1896 His conduct while
imprisoned has been nothing to brag on.
1t seems that this man was punished
about two years ago on account of his
failure to report two men who cut out
OF the same cell in which he was con-
fined. Eyy claims 10 have known nothing
about IT, but was punished because the
authorities felt sure he was implicated
The Governor also refused the pardon
Of Oliver Cragt, who was sentenced In
the Pittsylvania County Court TO eight
years Imprisonment for malicious cutting.
His pardon was asked for on the ground
that he was good niger and good
hand to work"
The Governor declined yesterday to re-
atx
that he could not do anything for her.
Mrs. Robins had come here from Taze-
well county for the purpose of petitoning
the Governor to pardon her husband, who
is now serving a sentence In the peniten-
tiGry.
The Governor had locked into the case
OF Mrs Robins husband, and learning
that Robins attempted TO escape from the
penitentiary on Monday morning, saw
IL would not do TO pardon him, DO matter
how earnestly the wife might plead for
his release. So he sent her word she
could accomplish nothing by an inter-
view.
Mrs. Robins then asked permission to
visit her husband in prison The Governor
replied that Superintendent Lynn had am
pie authority to admit her.

A Good Speaker,

A very entertaining lecture was de-
livered last evening in the COngrega-
tiOnal church by Rev. G. II. Richard
son, pastor of the AM E churches of
Wellington and Winfield. The lee
ture could better be termed a nara
tive of the speakers experiences while
a missionary in Africa. He gave a
description of the native customs and
languages of the tribes among whom
he worked as missionary He read
the sixty-seventh Psalm in one of the
African dialects and sang a few Songs
in those languages with which he
had become familiar while on the
dark continent.
The speaking Was voted by all pres
ent as one of the most interesting and
instructive lectures they ever listen
ed to. Rev. Richardson is a very able
man and could oil a much higher
charge than the one granted him now.
He was greeted by a full house last
evening, he may be secured to give
another lecture soon on a different
subject and if he is, he will doubtless
spe * to much larger audience.
