to put only Wine and Green on

Taylor have since been released.
The two negroes were prompt
ly convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. The attorneys feeling
that it was their duty to exhaust
all legal means IN the interest of
the negroes, carried the case to the
Supreme Court. The Supreme
Court did not see its way clear to
disturb the verdict of the lower
Court, and this appeal accounts
for the delay in the execution, as
the conviction was very prompt.
