RECEIVED THE LASH AT DOVER.
Sheriff Wharton Carries Out the Law in
Kent County Court Cases.

The Kent County court had little
before it last week but thieving cases,
which results generally in punish
ment by whipping. This took place
last Saturday. The work of last Sat
urday is thus set forth in letter to
the Philadelphia Record:
"Placidly smoking cigarette, Rob
ert Tilghman, convicted of stealing
blankets, took his 10 lashes at the
whipping post as unconcernedly as
though it were all everyday occur
ence.
The decision was the semi-annual
fogging, and nine prisoners were
whipped. A large crowd was present,
many of whom came to see James M.
Bernard, the Philadelphia who wrote
the Sheriff that he would surely be
there to be whipped in payment of a
bet with Conrad Henry, of that city.
Sheriff Wharton used a rawhide
whip and piled it vigorously. 1t is
very different lash from the instrument
of torture known as the cato nine
tails used in New Castle County.
Samuel Granger and Harry Quillen,
Dover boys, were whipped. Quillen
got Is lashes for completely in the
Dover trunk robberies, and Granger,
for burglary, was given 20 lashes and
an hour in the pillory.
Sheriff Wharton showed little mercy
to those two, as the Court had said
there was little good in them. They
tried to disguise them selves by pull
ing their hats over their faces.
Wilbur Ridgeway, deaf mute, was
given 10 lashes for completely in the
trunk robberies; Joseph Turner was
given 10 lashes for stealing hides;
Robert and Charles Waters, brothers,
10 lashes each for stealing chickens;
and Tobias Black and Tilghman Rob
inson, 10 lashes each for completely In
the trunk robberies from the Della
ware station.
"Now we are ready for James nj.
Bernard" said Wharton, hourlshlns
his whip, when the prisoners had been
taken to their cells.
But Bernard was not there. He had
written to the Sheriff that his conti-
dence had been betrayed, and that
Conrad, with whom he had the wager
had paid it.
