Our reporter called on Charley Glass,
Yesterday afternoon, and found him calm,
quiet and entirely rational, In answer to
questions he said he knew exactly how long
he had to live; but he was ready. lie
wouldn't care if they put the rope around
his neck in the morning and kept it there
until the day Of execution, only, he didn't
want them to try to hang him with string
He had heard of the petition that Mr.
Roberts and black man were circulating
in his behalf and felt sure if the Governor
knew what kind of trial he had had
knew that he had lived two years with the
woman whom Newman took away from
him, and that he paid grocery bill for
her on the evening before the murder--that
if the Governor knew all this he'd certainly
commute the sentence. But if they want
to hang me they'll do it anyhow; but they
can't hurt my soul Those who swore to

back to get revenge off Of them, because if
| go to heaven will not want to come back,
and if go to hell can't come back; for
the man that goes down INTO his grave shall
come back no more" Having disposed of
the matter in this manner, he married its
consistency, somewhat, by declaring that
only last night my dead wife came into
my cell and walked, and saw her
plainly as | see YOU, and am not mistaken
about it," At this point his religious fcrvor
