It was before the adoption of the chain gang system. Having no deputy to carry out the sentence at the court by taking the prisoner to jail, John told the judge he would take the com mitment and report to the sheriff in person, to which the judge consented and gave him the papers. Meeting Esq. Huggins John had him to ex amine the commitment to see if it was all right. Mr. Huggins took the paper and after examining it care fully said: “You may get in jail on that paper but I doubt it very much.’’ J. L. S.
