which sentence was Two Months each imprisonment in County jail.

The Case of Mr Waugh (colored) Convicted of Burglary by the County Court August Term and sentenced to Ten (10) years in Penitentiary reported last month. It was expected it would have been disposed of by this by the interposition of executive clemency as the Governor has been petitioned. 

The case will be brought before Judge Watson in the event of its not being acted upon by the Executive favorable to the prisoners release and I believe the verdict of the County Court will be set aside and a new trial ordered and the Jury instructed upon the case  A special report of this case will be made as soon as acted upon by the Circuit Court unless the case shall have been in the mean time disposed of [[strikethrough]] by [[/strikethrough]] in some other way.

No cases in Rappahannock County this term of County Court.
