The Supreme Court of Appeals did
not hand down 8 decision in the Lun-

petition praying for the withdrawal OF

This course was deemed advisable.
Counsel consulted with Editor John
Mitchell, Jr. and he concurred in the
opinion. If Mary Barnes secures a
new trial she will at once become sub
ject to the orders of the County Court
of fLunenburg, and would be taken out
of the Penitentisry where she is now
safe and conveyed to some distant jail
where she might be unsafe.
The favorable settlement of the
cases of Mary Abernathy and Pokey
Barnes will ensure pardon in her
case.
MARY BARNES PETITION.
Accordingly Editor Mitchell repair
ed to the Virginia Penitentiary, Mary
Barnes was brought in and signed the
following petition:
