Sentenced to Die at Stake.
Among some old records in the
possession J. H. W. of
Wilmington, is a document which
is a legal curio. Immediately after
the Revolution a murdered a
man in Brunswick county, was tried
by the authorities, convicted and
sentenced to be burned at the stake,
and this sentence was carried into
effect. The sentence is as
that the sheriff take
said Jemmy from hence to the place
of execution, where he shall be tied
to a stake and burned
It further appears that the said
Jemmy was a slave belonging to
Mrs. Sarah Dupree. Three
of the peace, William John
Fell and Thomas Sessions, and four
freeholders. John Aaron
Roberts, Needham and James
Ludlow, duly summoned for that
purpose, signed a certificate that said
slave was worth or f pro-
money. Upon. that
the legislature passed a
resolution for the payment of the
aid sum to Mrs. Dupree, the owner
of Jemmy.
Act of Will Close
American Tobacco
The recent act of the house
commons in England in imposing
a duty of per
died pounds on stripped
that is stemmed leaf, is of the
utmost importance to leaf dealers
in this country, but exactly the
effect it will have is not fully known
yet. The head officials of the
Tobacco Company, in Eng-
land, have notified the
in Richmond, Danville and other
places where they are working to
cease stemming tobacco for export.
The stemming of the company in
city has been closed fer some
time and consequently no order
was necessary at this time, but the
effect will be undoubtedly to shut
down every in this city
and fact all on this side the At-
next season.
A of The Free Press
waited, en Mr. manager
of Imperial interest in the city,
this morning, and inquired his
views- of the effect the act would
have. Mr. stated that as
he been officially advised
of the passage of the not of English
he did not care to express
officially an opinion, but that
it appeared now that the affect would
be to close the of the
imperial and ail independent con-
stem tobacco for export.
effect this will have on the
independent leaf dealer is not yet
clear,, but one thing is-known, that
it throw hundreds-, thousands
of who have earned their
livelihood that way, out of employ-
Mr,, John F. Hughes-., of Danville,
Va., a big leaf dealer and exporter
of tobacco, was here today and says
that independent dealers are feeling
great concern for tobacco in Eng-
land and in transit, as it is not
known on this side when the act be-
comes operative and whether the
duty will be imposed on it or not.
The cause of the trouble is that
heretofore an import
duty was imposed on all tobacco
shipped into England and to avoid,
paying duty on stems the tobacco
was stemmed in this country for ex-
port, but the new act makes a differ-
of pounds of
strip, that is the import duty on
stemmed tobacco is per hundred
more than on leaf unstemmed,
the difference makes it favorable to
shipping in its unstemmed state.
As stated the effect on independent
dealers, except these having strip-
tobacco to come the new
act, is not known, but it appears
that the stemming in this country
is doomed except where directly
connected with the factory here.
There is no reason for the act to
effect the price of tobacco to the
farmer, and in fact it would seem
that he would benefit by it by
greater opportunity for
labor on account of the number
thrown out of employment in the
shutting down of the
