the followiiig statement in the course of his
remarks ;
"If I wore Solic tor in Harnwell county I

Htu very much mistaken if 1 would not show ;
that he was more responsible thin any of j

When Solicitor Jervcy made the remark j
t.o <leulil lie nevr !' ? n inomrnt thought lie !
would have the opportunity of showing j
what lie could di in blingitig a thousand
men to trial, n-d to mention the task of j
bringing the tiovernor of South Carolina in

has ordered him to go to llvuniaik at

and the verdict of tuc jury of inquest
give no informitio i upon wich the prosecution

if the cise is ever 10 receive that
investigation that i's gravity seems to reunite.
it hecmiies the duly of the executive
ollicer to insiitnte pr iceedings in the premises.
Inasmuch as iln> violation of the law was
commute I in a conniiiuiity in which I have
many relatives ami cuiinrctions, it is not
inipropablc that s our of theni were ittipltcitcd.
especial y as n is stated iliit the
entire community was engage I -n the enterprise.
Such being liie case, any ellort on mv

would he einb massing to ine and probably
lay ine open to I he charge of p iriiill.ty an I

had your exce'leucy called ujon nie for fl
Counsel isnd adv.es it would have been ^^B
freely given but in your letter of the 4th IHB

Now, however, if yo i really wish advice, 1
I tespectfillly Miggo?l that you cill upon Bfl
the Solicit -r of lit Second t ire lit to obtain B|
die information necessary on which to base
prosecutions and to see that warrants are
i"?iied. When the suits of prosecutions
have been so begun it will be within your
power to direct the Attorney General or the
Solicitor of some other circuit to assist in
such prose .unions, and should it then t^^^b
peir that the Sol eitor of the Second
rnit is eonleoiited by the possible embarrass^^
me lit to which he lias alluded (that ail his
kinsmen were wi'li the lyncher-) lie may lie
relieved by his assistant of all further aotivo
pai-tieipa'i-oi.
I tepr.at what I hacc heretofore written,
whenever the Solicitor of the Second Circuit
-hall have performed his functions
under the law and prosecution has hcen

propose to decline, any duty which may lie
imposed upon me by competent air hot-it y.
