large crowd had assembled. The police
officer captured his man, when the wife
interfered and with tears streaming down
her cheeks implored the officer to let him
go. The prisoner also began to cry. and as

each other with great fervor. This was
too much for Officer Day, and he released
the prisoner, rs the woman refused to
