September 18, 2018Walter Land, of Princess Anne county, Va., has been sent to the penitentiary for killing his brother-in-law, Benjamin F. Flanagan. He ought to have been hung. He sent for Flanagan and deliberately shot him as he approached his (Land’s) door. He was without cause jealous of Land. They were both men of position and property. Gov. Wise was the counsel of Land, and made a speech of six hours’ length in his defense.
