We had heard and been informed, as it was true, that at the last session of the county court of his county, over which court he very ably and acceptably presides a certain colored man stole a coat out of a store in Buena Vista. He was caught with the stolen coat upon his person, brought back to town, arraigned before the court, convicted and sentenced to the chain gang within two hours from the time the theft was committed. No delay of justice in that case. We were prepared to believe that Judge Crawford is very popular in his county, as we had already heard.
