IlLLHall TO LEXINGTON.

j. FL. Tillrnan was yesterday trans
ferred from the Richland. to the Lex
ington jaii. a deputy sheriff was de-
tailed by Sheriff Coleman to deliver
the prisoner to the sheriff of Lexing-
ton county. Senator B. r. Tillman
accompanied the officer and prisoner.
In the order OF Judge Townsend
granting the motion for q change OF
venue and naming Lexington as the
place Of trial, it was decreed that the
prisoner should be delivered to the
sheriff Of Lexington by the Monday
preceding the opening of court there,
which would be the second Monday
in September. Under this elastic
wordi,,. it is understood, the prisoner
or his counsel. or both, requested his
removal to Lexington at this time.
The supposiision is that the prisoner
desires to get in touch with the sltua-
ton in Lexington, as it IS said ne
takes a most active part in the pre-
paration of his defense, and it is
known that while incarcerated here ne
received numerous visitors. Doubt
less he will have the same privileges
in Lexington, if none additional, anc
viii carry en- as earnest campaign
for acquittal as the circumstances
permit. State, July IA.
