however, has gone off at a tangent, and d
serves a niche in tho tallest porch of Poriop

vented a barn, a oona fide ham; and yet, strang
as it may seem, a ham without a bone. Th
first specimen ever seen in Charleston wt

If you want ham cold, you "bile" it bag an
body, and slice it to suit the fancy. If yo
want a fry you untie the ends' of tho canvas?
and cut to suit your capacity. You get th
juice, the essence, the body and soul at ever
bite, and there isn't a man who has made
right angle of his knees under Captain Lock

boned ham is an innovation on the time-honor

tho age. Wo loam that the invention wai
made by the firm of TU ton & Co., No. 30 Har

certainly the first timo that a Charlestoi

BEAUFAIN-STREET, 4* o'clock P. M., Tuesday.
Gentlemen: I left the Courthouse at three
/clock, and came home, hoping to return and

I now find myself so oppressed by the ca

lope to add in any way to your enjoyments.
I am, therefore, constrained to forego tho
pleasure I had expected. I cannot tell you how
nuch I am disappointed.
Besides a full appreciation of the honor of
roux invitation, other considerations resting
>n the condition of public affaire made me de
fire to be present, and accept the opportunity
,o express, before the oldest associated guar?
imos of that commerco now prostrate under
nisrule, some views which would thus reach
thc ear of our old State, whose representatives
elevated me to a participation in the highest

the very agony of her extremest peril, and be?
cause also she is now prostrate, despoiled of
"all save her honor."
There can be no baseness more extreme than
desert ion and treachery at the hour of peril
and despair.
With the wish that you mav fully enjoy the
pleasure of which I am deprived.
I am, very truly,

SAVED F Ko M THE GALLOW
JOHN JENKINS NOT A MURDE
STRANGE AND STAETLINO BEVELATIC
THE BEAL MURDERER DE Al
NABBOW ESCAPE OF AN INNOCENT MAN-AI
&c., ftc, &C.
Tohn Jenkins, a freedman, wbo was t
been hung to-moiTow, at the jail in th
for the murder of R. M. Brentford, dr,
riot in June, 18GG, bas had his sentenci
muted, by his Excellency Governor Orr,
prisonment in the State Penitentiary ?
years. This is a eise in which our corni
have been deeply interested, and in whi
military authorities have made the most
uous endeavors to determino the doubt wi
John Jenkin H was the guilty person.
The following reasons for the commu
of the ?entonce will explain the charat
the evidence upon which the action i
Governor has been based:
TEE STATE BS. JOHN JENKINS AND St
FRASEE-MUBDEB.
The prisoners John Jenkins and I
Fresar were indicted for the murder of
Brantiord, in the City of Charleston, o
24th of June, 1866. They were tried t
January tenn, 1867, of tho Court of Sesi
before Judge Dawkins, and convicted,
counsel appealed. Ponding the appeal, c
the prisoners, Scipio Fraser, died in jail
the April tenn of the Appeal Court, 18G7
case of Jenkins was heard, his motion
new trial refused, and he was sentenced
executed in June. A few days before the
cntion was to take place, I respited the pr
er for one month. Beforo the expiratic
this time I was applied to by tho officer
commanding this Military District for a fm
respite. I, howover, declined to grant it,
assigned my reasons, at length, in a comn
cation addressed to General Sickles,
prisoner, John Jenkins, was then furthe
spited by the military authorities, and evid
was taken I y General Hincks, the Prc
Marshal-General of this District, in
form of affidavits, from quite a nui
of witnesses who wero not sworn bt
the trial tending to show an altbi. Ti
papers were submitted to my considera!
and upon a careful examination, I was satit
that the effort of tho prisoner to eetablisl
alibi was unsuccessful, and that this sup
mental ovidenco was not entit'nd to outwi
and overrids the tostimonv , * *j ^y y*?tni
on the stand durims c. > JKac Several
nesscs'fnen established to my satisfaction
fact that Jenkins was engaged in the ric
the Bay ard up King-street. But the only
ness who professed to have seen Jenkins ic
a blow upon the deceased (Brentford) was
George J. Ahrens. He stated, in his tosti
ny bsfore Judge Dawkins, that ho ''saw ,
lunn and Frasor both throw bricks that t
effect on Brentford. Jonkins threw one a
he fell and stamped upon him. They wore
loaders of the crowd and ho knew them wi
He further says: "Tho next day he saw Fra
heard him say in his yard ho had killed
white-livered son of a bitch and would
another, and be had him arrested." lu
cross-examination he says: "Jenkins flung
firs t brick and Scipio Fraser the second. Bra
ford then ran, and was by their house wi
Jenkins hit him agairijg'
Upon the testimony of Ahrens, thou, sol
depends the question whether Jenkins did
did not, upon that occasion, inflict ono or ni
of tho blown which took tho life uf the i
ceased.
In tho two reviews of the case herc toft
made by mo and transmitted to tho militi
authorities, 1 aBsumod that Ahrens' teatime
wau true, and if so, that Jenkins was the ur
deror.
After General Canby assume 1 command
tlii.- District, he examined tho caso and rem
ted it again to the civil authorities, and in J:
uary, 18C8, Jenkins was re-sentenced by Jud
Moses, and his execution fixed tor tho seco
Friday in February. A renewed effort has be
made by the friends of the prisoner to sect
the pardon or a commutation ot the pun?
mont ot Jenkins, and a very numerously sign
petition, embracing tho names of some whil
and of many hundred colored citizens, h
been placed in my hands. In addition to th
from the information communicated to Gc
eral Canby by General Hincks, who investiga!
the subject closoly, Gonorel Canby instruct
Lieutenant-Colonel Wilhams, the present Pt
vost Marshall, to make a caicful examin?t!
of the promises and ascertain the precise 1
cality where the first brick was thrown ai
where Brantiord foll. Ho has made that c
animation, together with a drawing of tl
promises, and concludes his report-"th
Ahrens could not have seen with any certain
the transaction, and particularly if the crow
as it did, assembled around tho fallon man."
This report was made on the 30th of Janna:
last. General Canby, in his communication i
tho 4th instant, says: "I etatod to you verbal
soino days sinco that General Hincks, thou ac
ing Frovosl Marshal of this district, had forn
ed the opinion from his own examination of tl
cane, that it was physically impossible for tl:
boy Ahreus to have seen what ho testified too
Uta trial of John Jcnkius for the murder <
Brantford; aud that on his examination eubst
qnent to tho trial, he was unable to diocrim
nate with any distinctness between what h
had seen and what he had heard of Ibo riol
To settle this question definitely, I directe
Colonel Williams, the present Provost Marsha]
to make a careful examination again, fix exact
ly the spot where Brantford fell, and tho loca
tion of tho porch, from which, according b
the testimony before the court, Ahrens witness
ed the killing." Again, General Canby says
"On Saturday (preceding tho date of this let
ter), prompted, I supposo, by tho new investi
gation, Ahrens sent word to tho Provost Mar
shal that his testimony was not true; but tba
he had been deterred by the tear of proseen
tion from making this confession at an earlie]
period."
On tho 8th instant, Ahrens subscribed in his
own handwriting au affidavit before Colonel E
W. Dennis, Judge Advocato of the U. S. Anny
Second Military District, of which tho following
is a copy :
STATEMENT OF GEORGE F. AUKENS IN TEE CASI
OF JOHN JENKINS (COLORED), CONVICTED O?
TEE MOBDER OF BICBABD M. BBANTFOBD
SUNDAY, 24TB JUNE, 18?6, ABOUT 8 O'CLOCK,
p. M.:
"I was standing on tho piazza of the house
1 Uve in, No. 86 Tradd-stroot. Tho crowd of
negroes came out of Kin?-street into Trndd
street, and stopped in front of my house.
While the crowd were standing in the street, I
saw Mr. Brantford coming along Tradd-street
from Orange-stieet. aud going towards King
street. When Brantford got opposite our big
gate, on the Fame side of the street that I was
on, tho cry of "fire" was raised by Scipio
Fraser and others in the crowd. Scipio Fraser
then threw a brickbat at Brantford, which hit
him in tho back; then several moro brickbats
were thrown by the crowd, one of which struck
Brantford on tho back of his head, knocking
him down. As ho fell he struck his head on
the corner of the stone slop on the house next
to ours, toward King-street, and punched a
hole in his head; then the crowd nil gathered
around him, as he lay on the ground, kicked
him, and struck him with brickbats; they
then left him, and I saw two colored men como
up Tradd-street, who picked Brentford up and
carried him home. I remained on thc piazza
from the time tho crowd first turned into
Tradd-street until tho two colored men carried
Mr. Brantford away. There WAS about tweutv
seven colored men in the crowd that attacked
Brentford. During the time the bricks were
being thrown, 1 heard Scipio Fraser say "kill
the rebel BOU ol' a bitch." Thc distance (rom
where I Btood on the piazza to tho spot w
Brantford was knocked down was from
(50) to seventy-five (75) yards. When Brant
was knocked down, John Jenkins waa inf
of our house, and nearly under me, aa I e
on tho piazza. I recognized Scipio Frase
tho crowd that surrounded Brentford afte
fell, but I cannot say I saw Jenkins am
them; it was a moonlight night, but not '
bright, rather oloudy and hazy. I did not
Jenkins, at any time during* the riot,
nearer to Mr. Brentford than ne (Jenkins)
at the time Brautford fell, which was at
twelve foet closer to Brentford than I wai
the time. The same evening that thc
occurred Scipio Fraser came into my yard,
was talking about the riot. He said : T,
no one else, killed the rebel son of a bi
(moaning Brantford), 'and he is not the fi
nor he will not be the last 1 will kill.' !
next morning I told Mr. Nipson what Fra
had said, and he caused him to be arrested,
did not see Jenkins strike Brantford dui
the riot."

A true copy of the original affidavit.
GEO. A. WILLIAMS,
?revet Lieut.-Col. and Major 6th Infantry,
Provost Marshal General
Tho foregoing statement by Ahrens, cont
dieting so absolutely and unequivocally
own sworn testimony upon the trial, shoi
cause any executive to hesitate before allowi
the death penalty to be executed on a hum
being, when that is the only testimony i :er
fying Jenkins as one of the persons who
flicted the blows which took the life of you
Brantford. If the prisoner possessed wea
and means, it might have been that this fl
ness, for a consideration, would have been
duced to perjure himself; but the prisoner!:
not the means to purchase such a statement
the last ono made by Ahrens. Additional e
dence, however, has been placed in my han
in the form of affidavits-and, with such si
r lundings, I am bound to credit them-cc
firming th J truth of the last statement
Ahrens-to wit: that he did not see Jonki
use any violence whatever upon the decease
Francis Nipson, who is the exeoutor or n
ministrator of the estate of the rather
Ahrens, in an affidavit on the 1st of Februar
18C8, says : "George Ahrens, who was a w:
nesc in the above case, came to me (Nipson
and said Scipio rreser, the boy who killed Brat
ford, was there the day before he was arrest!
ar,d told him (Ahrens), that he was the oi
who killed Brentford, and no other perse
had done it, and it was not the last or the fir
rebel be had killed And also that Goori
Ahrens said that no one had done it but Scip
Fraser. Scipio Fraser told me (Nipson) at tl
timo I arredtei,"?n. and before I handed hi
over to the police, thu,'.he. ^wu?'in? one wi
committed the act. The two female witness
in the yard of No. 86 Tradd-street (Sarah Brov
and Kate Kennedy), and Ahrens also told n
that Scipio Fraser was the ono who kill?
Brantford, and they did not mention anythii
about JenkniB; otherwise I would have goi
with the police and arrested him also." [Jei
I kins was not arrested until three days aft<
Fraser had been arrested and lodged in jail
"From tho situation of the piazza of the hom
No. 86 Tradd-street, where Ahrens says he sa
Jenkins strike Brantford, after a careful e:
animation, I find it was impossible for Ahrer
lo have seen Jenkins strike Brantford as h
says. '
John HUSH, the uncle of Ahrens, on the 4t
of February, 1868, makes the following state
menton oath: "That he saw Brantford wall
ing up Tradd-street towards King, and chi
tinctly observed that ho tried to turn bac
again, but thcro bein? a large crowd of mo
and boys, he found it impossible. One colore
man criod out "Charge," and bricks and stone
were thrown, apparently by all ol them, s
that ho could not tell who threw the brick o
stone that killed Brantford; and that ho wa
in thu house of No. 86 Tradd-street, lookin,
out of the window" [which ia nearly twenty
tivo fcot nearer to whero Brentford was kille
than whoro Ahrens stood on thc piazza] "am
Haw tho whole of the affair, from the time th
rioters turned into Tradd-street from King
street, and (hat the bricks and stones wer
thrown so fast that he could not tell who throt
thc brick or stone that killed Brantford, am
that he could not recognize any of tb- crowd.
Neither of the two last named witnessoi
wore sworn upon the trial or have heretofon
submitted affidavits.
The foregoing are the additional facts whicl
havo boon brought to my attention sijee th<
case was reviewed by me on a previous occa
sion. Thcro was ono fact, however, importan
in its bearing upon the case, which was befon
mo, and which it is proper hero to ropeat.
Jamos Konncdy, who was the jailor of tin
Charleston jail at. the time that Scipio Frasei
died, to wit: About the 17th of April, 1867,
states, une'er oath, "that Fraser died in hii
coll; that when the said Scipio Fraser was iv
articulo mortis, having been previously in?
formed, and hoing himself convinced that he
was in a dying state, he made to this doponent
a confession as follows: That h ^as concerned
in tho affair in which one Brantfc was killed,
in July, 1866, and that ono Johi. VQljiuns,
freedman, struck tho blow which .c.cked
Brentford down, and that he, Scipir Vascr,
struck Brantford whon ho was down; tba <?aid
Williams lived on South Bay, in i -ie
woodyard, tho deponent thinks, and muJi
resembled ono Joh i Jonkiua, then and now
uudcr Boutcncc of death upon conviction of
having killod tho said Brentford; that ho knew
the said Jenkins previous to the affair, and
that he was innocent of the crime ot which ho
had boen convicted, a8 he, Jenkins, was not
present at tho time Brantford was killed; that
tho deponent then asked tho said Fraser why
he had no? made this confession previous to
tho trial of Jenkins, and the said Fraser an
j swered that ho thought that ho would have a
better chanco to get clear if he could have a
trial with Jenkins, knowing Lim, Jenkins, to
be innocent of the charge."
After a careful review of the circumstances
connected with this case, and of the new facts
that havo beon brought to light within the past
few days, I have come to the conclusion that
there is not sufficient evidence to justify
me in declaring that Jenkins was one of the
murdcieis of Brantford. On the contrary,
tho ovidenco certainly lends to exoner?
ate Jenkins from ?ny active participation
in the murder. I still, however, entertain tho
opinion that he was among tho riotors; that
he was with them in their march up King
street, and whon they turned into Tradd-street,
and, although not striking the fatal blow him?
self which took tho life of Brantford, ho was
guilty of a greatoutrago upon tho laws of the
State, and upon the peace and safety of society;
and that, for his participation therein, he
morits exemplary punishment.
Believing that he is not guilty of having
stricken either of tho blows which produced the
death of the unfortunate Brantford, but tba'
he was among thc rioters, I have commut d
his punishment from death to five years' im?
prisonment at hard labor in thc penitcntiarv.
