The Daily Dispatch: February 9, 1864., [Electronic resource], Carrying off Citizens of North Carolina. (search)
Attorney for the Commonwealth, by the direction and with the advice of the Court, declined further to prosecute in the case of John, a slave, accused of aiding another slave, charged with aiding a slave of William Robinson to escape from his master. The Court remanded for trial before Judge Lyons, Asa O. Bevill, who was examined on the charge of larceny. John W. Carlton was acquitted of a charge of horse stealing, for which he had been sent on from the Mayor's Court. The charge against John M. French, of stealing $1,900 in Confederate notes from John Wesley Counor, was heard and considered, and the accused sent on for trial before Judge Lyons. A grand jury was sworn, and, having received their charge, were sent out of Court, and after some time returned true bills, against several parties upon indictments charging them with various offences; after which they were adjourned over till Thursday next. The Court thereupon adjourned till this morning at 11 o'clock.
