UNCONDITIONAL PARDON
Granted by Coy. Atkinson to Vale
Boughner, Of Clarksburg.

CLARksBURG, w. Va, May 3d.
A telegram was received this after
noon from Governor Atkinson, by
Daniel BonghneF, Esq, stating that
an u unconditional pardon had been
granted Vale Boughner
1t will be remembered that Vale
Boughner was indicted and tried for
the killing of Edward A. Young, Of
Buckhannon, here last June, and that
he was convicted of murder 10 the
second degree and sentenced to serve
seven years in the penitentiary at the
January term of court.
The case was appealed to the SUI
preme Court, which body has not yet
acted in the matter.
The action of the Governor meets
with the universal approval of all citi-
zens who are acquainted with the
facts in the case.
CHARLESTON, w. Va. May 80.
The Governor to-day issued an abso-
lutte and unconditional pardon to
Vale Boughner. CONVICTED in the Cir
cult Court OF Harrison county last
January of murder in the second de-
gree and sentenced to serve seven years
in the penitentiary
The crime for which Boughner was
convicted was the killing Of Edwin
A. Young on the 18th day of last
June. Young was visitor in the
town of Clarksburg, and it seems that
some boys undertook to run him out
Of town, aud Boughner seeing Young
running, and believing that be had
committed murder joined in the
pursuit, firing three shots at him
from a revolver, one Of which took
effect and killed him.
A writ of error was obtained from
the Supreme Court on February 2lst
last, and the case was docketed for
hearing in that court, where it is still
pending,
The case was submitted To the State
Board OF Pardons several weeks ago
and argued by counsel on both sides,
consideration. One of the members,
p. w. Morris, was in favor of grant
ing pardon TO Boughner, and wrote
an elaborate opinion Of the case. The
other member, WV. Brannon, stated
that he regarded it inexpedient to
pass upon the case while it is pending
In the Supreme Court. Mr.. Brannon
raised the question as to whether the
defendant, Boughner, is under convic-
ton, while the case is pending in
Court and for this reason be declined
to concur in the recommendation Of a
pardon.

Grafton Day.
w. V. u. won another victory on
Decoration day defeating Bethany
by the close score OF four to one.
Bethany scored in the first inning
by base on balls and some funny
misplavs but after that they did not
come near the home plate. Bowman
retired ten of them without any
damage being done.
On the other hand the local boys
made one run in the second inning
and three in the third failing to con
meet in any other part Of the game.
They could hardly find the ball and
only netted seven hits during the
argument. This is the lowest mum
Der made this year.
They haven't lost a single college
