Mr. John Mitchell,

LEEDs, AMHERST Co, VA, Sept 9th.
Mr. John Mitchell,
Dear Sir You will please find en-
closed a circular with an amount of
II 40 and the names of those who gave
TO aid in defraying the expense Of
counsel for those defenseless women.
Dear Sir, as soon as this case came to
our observation through the PLANET,
Mr.. A. l.. Johnson, superintendent Of
Stave Mfg. here, noted the case OF
these poor peDniless women of this our
down trOdden race, and was moved by
our sympathy to turn our ear TO the
cry of Justice, and see that Justice is
done TO Nirginia's humble citizens re-
CARELESS of creed or color So called
the attention of those employed here
to the outrageous charge laid upon
these women which was put upon
them by the complicated schemes of a
low bred white man who forced the
Negro TO help him commit this crime
upon Mrs Pollard. Now what we
want to see is justice done on all sides.
and that the good law-abiding citizens
of Virginia see that the guilty pay
the penalty that the innocent may not
suffer at the hands OF those cruel, So
called justice lovers in these courts of
Virginia
In conclusion, 1 herewith enclose
forty cents with the balance of money
for three months subscription to the
PLANET so we may be able to have the
whole proceeding OF the case.
l am yours for the race,
q II. GRANT.
