THE Evening journal, less than a
month ago went inUo Mysteries over
the reported parlolling OF Me5sr5.
Bennett and Wilson aud the Mills
boys for committing an assault on
Bethuel Hall, because he shot four
FOX hounds that went Oh his farm.
The four men were tried at the May
term of the Kent county court and
being found guilty Of assault were
sentenced to serve six months in
Jail. They have served three months
OF the term and the popular senti-
ment of the people i'll that section
is that they should be parloned.
The journal opposed the parloning
of these men with almost the sams
vigor that it is now recommending
their pardon.
The killing of the fox hounds so
incensed the four men tl,at they
Committed an assault on Hall that
he will not forget aslong as he lives.
The men have acknowledge | thag
they did Mir. Hall d grievous wrong
AMI have written to him and his
family humble apology saying
that they acted in the heat Of pas
sion. The four men have always
borne good reputation aa,l never
before been before the cAurt which
no doubt made the penalty less th2n
it would otherwise have been.
Now the Journal is champ ming
their cause fora pardon. xvi ieAtly
the paper don't see 50 much politics
now that the true facts Of the cl+,
have been set before them. Th4se
men are Democrats, but they have
been good citizens and nave Leen
sufficiently punished and we would
also ask the PardoniuG Board to
give them their liberty. There
should never have been the hue and
cry set up some time ago when the
cases were brought before the Par
aoning Board at Dover.
But why this change on the part
