Petition for Pardon
State Of Mississippi.

State of Mississippi,
Lee County.
TO His Excellency Jas. X. Vardaman,
Governor:
Your petitioner, Mack Kimbal, would
respectfully show that at the August
term, 1905, in the Circuit Court of Lee
county. Miss, he was convicted of an
unnamable crime and sentenced to serve
a term of six months in the pe~nitentiary;
that he is not guilty Of said charge and
has been confined in the county jail since
his trial, not being allowed to give a
supersedeas bond; that the Supreme
Court has affirmed the decision of the
lower court; that the jury in rendering
a verdict of guilty, recommended him to
the fullest mercy of the court; that
after his trial his attorneys procured
and filed in court on a motion for a new
trail, the affidavits of five members of
the grand jury which indicted him to
the effect that the only witness against
him on whose testimony he was convict
ed, swore entirely different before said
grand jury to what he swore on the
trial of said cause; and also the afida-
Wit of other witnesses who are reputa-
BILE men, to facts which would show
that it would have been absolutely i'm
possible for him to have committed the
offense charged. All of afidavits are
on file in the Office of the Circuit Clerk
in Lee county and copies of which are
on file in the Supreme Court of the
state, all of which you are earnestly e
quested to examine fully, and petitioner
therefore asks that you grant him a
pardon.

TO The Citizens Of The CIV of Tupelo

By order of the Mayor and Board of
Aldermen of said city, notice is hereby
given, that the time for having plumb
ing done and connections to sewer and
water mains made, is hereby extended
to January LIST. 1906. That all persons
who are not ready for and with such
connections by that time, the said board
will at once take such legal action to
compel such plumbing and connections
as the law in such cases authorizes.
The board respectfully calls the atten-
ton of the people to the fact that they
have already had IL months in which
to get ready for this service. but that
inasmuch as there was some delay in
the completion of sewerage, this 81
months additional time is given. 1t is
certainly not the desire of this board
to Cypress any one in this matter, and
trust that it may not have to reSor.
to compulsory measures with any citizen
in this behalf. Please take due notice.
