About two weeks ago, she said her mistress lost a hundred dollars. ‘ She missed it [tom he: drawerfl the girl said to me, ‘and asked me about "it. That evemng Nancy Luther told Mrs. Naseby that she saw me take the money from the drawer --that she watched me through the keyhole. Then they went to my trunk and found 3‘25 of the missing money there, But, sir, I never took it, and somebody must have put it there. I then asked her if she suspected any 0118.7 ' ' .v ‘ They tell me you are a good lawyer,; he whispered. ‘I am a lawyer,’I answered. ‘ Then do 61. ve her. You cettainly can do it, for she is innocent.’ ‘ ls sue you: sister?’ ‘ No sir,’ he added, ‘ but, butâ€"â€"’ Here he hesitated. ‘ Has she no counsel?’ I asked. ‘ None that’s good- for anythingâ€"nobody that will do anything for her. Oh save her, and I’ll give you all I’ve got. I can’t give you much, but I can raise something.’ At this juncture, when the mistress was upon the witness stand, a young man came and caught me by the arm. He was a fine- looking mag, and big tears stood in his eyes. The complaint against her set forth that she had stolen a hundred dollars from a Mrs. Naseby and as the case vent on, I found that this Mrs. Naseby. a wealthy widow living in the town, was the girl’s mistress. The poor girl declared her innocence in the wildest terms, but circumstances were hard against her. A hundred dollars had been stolen from her mistress’ room, and she was the only one that had access there. In the spring of 1814 I was called to Jack~ sou, Alabama, to attend court, having been engaged to defend a youngman who had been accused of robbing the mail. I arrived early in the morning and immediately had a long conference with my client. The stolen mail had been recovered, as well as the letters from which the money had been rifled.â€" These letters had been given for myexamina- lion, and I returned them to the prosecuting attorney. Having got through nt'yprelimina- ries about noon, and as the case would not come off before the next day, I went into court in the afternoon to see what was going on. The first case that came up was one of theft. and the prisoner a young girl not more than seventeen years of age, named Eliza- beth-'Madworth. She was very pretty and bore that mild, innocent look which we sel- dom find in a culprit. She had been weep- ing profusely, but, as she found so many eyes upon her, she became too frightened to weep more.

The next morning I received a note handsomely writ- ten, in which I was told that within was but a slight token of the gratitude due me for my efforts in behalf of the poor defenceless maiden. It was signed ‘Several Citizens,’ and contained one hundred dollars. Shortly afterwards, the youth who first begged me to take up the case called upon me with all the money he could raise. but I showed him what had been paid, and refused his hard earnings.
