Howard  v.  Fleming

 Argued: October 27, 1903. --- Decided: November 16, 1903

At the June term, 1901, of the superior court of Guilford county, North Carolina, the three parties named as appellants in the first of these cases and as plaintiffs in error in the second were indicted, tried, and convicted of the crime of conspiracy. Daly was sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years, and the other two for ten years each. All appealed to the supreme court of the state, by which court the judgment was affirmed (129 N. C. 584, 40 S. E. 71), and thereupon the writ of error in the last case was issued. A writ of habeas corpus was also sued out from the circuit court of the United States for the eastern district of North Carolina, directed to the warden of the state prison, which, after hearing, was dismissed, and from such dismissal an appeal was taken to this court; and that is the first of the above cases.

Messrs. Frank P. Blair, Leslie A. Gilmore, J. L. Howard, and H. D. Hawley for Howard et al.
