of William Rhea, which was to have
taken place at u: 30 O'Clock, was post
poned thirty minutes pending deci-
sion of the supreme court on applica-
ton for an injunction to prevent the
hanging The action before the court
was brought in view of the reprieve
granted Rhea by former Governor Saw
age The reprieve imposed hard la
Dor" upon Rhea as punishment. The
attorneys for Rhea argued that this
imposition nullified the sentence for
hanging in that it serves two punish
ments for the same crime.
The supreme court denied the ap-
plication for an injunction, but eX-
pressed a willingness to go into con
sultation regarding the granting of a
reprieve by the governor until fur
ther hearing of the application could
be made The governor and Chief
Justice Sullivan of the supreme court
then went into consultation regarding
such action. The conference soon
ended. Governor Mickey refused &c
grant a further reprieve and ordered
the sheriff to proceed with the eXecu
ton
The attorneys for Rhea in last
effort went before Judge Holmes o.
