Final Action In Lonely Hearts Case In Hillsville
In Carroll County Virginia the circuit court at Hillsville, during its December term, re sentenced Ernest I. Torrence in the lonely hearts case. The 1949 trial led to a ten year term for grand larceny, but habeas corpus proceedings and a later proceeding under Judge Draper produced a new five year sentence on two counts. The sentences run concurrently with good behavior.

Torrence’s Short Prison Term Hinted in Hillaville Case
In Hillaville Torrence, held since August, faces a brief prison term after being charged with swindling Mine Hill for about 2000 dollars with a bogus Florida land deed. The 1940 trial featured the deed shown to Mine Hill by Hillaville lawyer Byrum P. Goad, then Carroll County Commonwealth's Attorney. Torrence did not testify in his defense at that trial and sought a continuance to be represented by J. L. Dillow of Pearisburg, who was absent.
