During hull in the program the
members of feminine literary So

three criminals who, though SEN
fenced to the penitentiary for life,
yet stood chance under the law OF
being pardoned after fifteen years

of the party was most emphatic in
her denunciation of the criminals
and the law of the state which
opened an avenue for leniency.
