In compliance with a request of Judge William F. Harding, the governor issued a pardon for Margaret Hanna of Gaston county, who was in jail on a charge of prostitution. Judge Harding wrote the governor that in his opinion the woman was not properly convicted and that now he ws of the opinion that she was not guilty of the charge. He not only recommended, but urged the pardon.
