the Lynchburg team lost the game TO

honorable life, we comply with their
requests and suspend sentence ON
the indictment for forgery and i'm
pose the extreme penalty of the law
in the other case, which sentence is
that you, Joseph H. Dawes, pay the
costs of prosecution and a fine of one
hundred dollars to the Commonwealth
and stand committed until this SEN
tence is complied with. Under the
charge of forgery and your plea, we
might, and may hereafter unless your
future conduct be upright, send yon
to the penitentiary for ten years, but
believing that the detection and ex-
posure of the crime in this case, win
have greater effect in deterring others
than severity of punishment, and
that your penitence and present
punishment will be sufficient guar
antee for your future good behavior,
we remand you to the custody of the
