The mother of n Of the prisoners
In the county jail arrived here yester.
day from the west to see her son.
The boy was quite free to admit that
he was guilty Of the offense charged,
and saw nc particular policy In deny
iny It, as he knew there were several
eye witnesses to the commission e
the crime. This seemed to make t ,
mother quite indignant, and she ny
raided him quite bitterly, not becsur,
he had done wrong, but because h,
was willing to admit 1t. She urgen
him to deny 1t, no matter what thu
witnesses saw, and seemed to b,
ohsgrined that she had brought up h
boy who had no more sand as oh,
termed II, than to admit q crime
With . mother having such ideas Il
10 not to be wondered at that the o
let down the moral bars.
