Petition for Pardon.
State of Mississippi,
Lee County
To Governor James K. Vardanian:
Your petitioner, Tom Helms, would
respectfully show unto your Excellency
that he was indicted by the Circuit
Court of Lee County at the August {
term, 1904, of said court for man-,
slaughter for the killing of one J ake
Ledbetter; that to said indictment he ;
entered a plea of “not guilty” when
arraigned in open court to said indict
ment; that afterwards upon the advice
of his father and a number of white
friends he appeared before the court and
entered a plea “of intentionally pointing
a gun and discharging same at Jake Led
better,’’ thereby killing him; that your
petitioner at the time of the killing of
said Ledbetter, was-only fourteen and
a half years of age; that he was sen
tenced by the Hon. E. O. Sykes, Jud^e
of the First Judicial District of Missis
sippi, to serve a term of th'ee years in
the State Penetentiary; that he has now
served on said sentence one year and
one month and now feels that owing to
his youth and the character of the kill
ing he has been sufficiently punished
for his said offense and respectfully
submits this, his petition for pardon,
signed by those familiar with the facts
in the case. That a number of those
living in the community in which the
killing occurred,believe that the killing
was an accident: TOM HELMS.

changes the appropriation for schools

so let us get ready for the opening.

TO LITTLE CHRISTINE.
In memory of Christine, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Moreland, who
died Aug. 18, 1905, aged 4 years, 10
months and 10 days.
Darling angel, how we miss you
Since you left us all alone—
Left us with the greatest sorrow
We have ever, ever known.
Only one short year has vanished
Since we said our last goodbye,
Thinking not that ’twas forever
That we parted—she and I.
0, how well do we remember
Every little baby word
Spoken like a dove’s soft cooing,
E’en the sweetest ever heard.
i 0, those little golden tresses
She would curl for me to love!
j Ah. how soon the angels claimed them
For that brilliant Court above!
How with pride she’d , comb and curl
them
For her “Uncle George” to see.
! Savior, how my heart is bleeding
None can know but I and thee.
' Now, returning from my rambles,
Oh. how lonely I will be
W ien I meet the other faces
And her face to never see.
0, the pain, the throbbing heartaches
i We exnerience every day
When we see her dolls and playthings,
When she liked the best to play
And for “papa” and for “mamma”
What a lifetime gloom is there.
With the family chain all broken
And the little vacant chair.
Oft we wonder in our blindness
Why our darling could not stay.
Why should she, so young and gentle,
Be sa quickly snatched away?
But when life’s rough road is ended
And we reach the river shore,
Where we’ll all be re-united
Ne’er to know a parting more.
When beyond the walls of jasper,
There to live for aye and aye;
We will know, then, why our darling
Could not longer with us stay.
Uncle George.

To Th’ Citizen; of The Cltv of Tupelo
B7 order of the Mayor and Board of
Aldermen of said city, notice is hereby
given, that the time for having plumb
ing done and connections to sewer and
■ j water mains made, is hereby extended
i to January 1st. 1993. That all persons
| wh > are not ready for and with s uch
: connections by that time, the said board
j wiil at once take such legal action to
t j compel such plumbing and connections
as the law m such cases authorizes.
The board respectfully calls the atten
tion of the people to' the fact that they
; have already had 12 months in which
, to get ready for this service, but that
inasmuch as there was some delay in
the completion of sewerage, this 3)
; months additional time is given. It is
| certainly not the desire of this board
, to oppress any one in this matter, and
trust that it may not have to resort
to compulsory measures with any citizen
in this behalf. Please take due notice.
This Oct. 18th 1905.
