Tearful Plea of a Woman Secures Her Husband's Relcase.

He's al- ways treated me well, judge; has worked hard fo’ me an’ de chil'un, an’ he only struck me in temper. I know he'll be good to me if you'll let him off dis time, judge. I'm willin’ to trust him agin, an’ if you sends him to prison, Gawd knows what's gwine ter come of me an’ de chil’un. Give him a chance, judge,” tearfully pleaded the woman. Assistant District Attorney Shillington explained that Lincoln struck his wife with a hammer during a quarrel between them, inflicting a severe wound. “But, your honor,” said Mr. Shillington, “as the woman is willing to forget and forgive, and as she and her children would suffer more, perhaps, than the defendant, should he be sent to the penitentiary, the government is willing that he be released under a suspension of sentence.” in view of your wife's interference in your behalf,” said the court to Lincoln, “I will give you the chance for which she has pleaded. But, remember, if you violate any law hereafter you wili be brought into court and sent to the penitentiary for not less than two nor more than eight years. Now, go and behave yourself hereafter. “I will, sah,” replied the man, and, pick- ing up one of his little ones, he moved off with the woman who had forgotten and forgiven. ———— ST.
