THE CONDEMNED PRIsoNER.-James
Lewis, the colored man now in the
Fairfax jail under sentence of death.
and who is to be hung on Friday, June
4th, spends most of his time sleeping or
lying down. His wife, vino lives in
this city, has not visited him, and al
though he has written to her twice. she
did not answer until Wednesday, when
she wrote that she would go to see him
on Saturday next. He has had no
communication from his father, and
only q postal card from his mother,
stating that she could do nothing for
him and could not go to see him.
When asked if he wished to see min
lister of the gospel, he replied, after
some elaboration, "Well, 1 don't
know. I wouldn't mind seeing one,"
but he wouldn't say whether he pre-.
ferred white or colored minister, or
one Of any particular denomination.
He thinks he ought to have new trial,
but says if the other trial suits the PEG.
pie it suits him, because he can't help
himself. 1t having been stated by
colored woman in this city that Lewis
had previously served term in the
psnitentiary for assault committed in
one of the Northern Neck counties, an
investigation followed which did not
substantiate the assertion. Many per
sons have applied for permission to see
Lewis hung, but the law limits the
number who are to be present.
