And thumb contentment's harp

Disease instead of harmony then

IIApPIESF MAN IN TOWN.
James white, ex-Convict, Goes Heck
10 Take Up the r bread Of Life Where
Hp Land IL Down.

The happiest man in Raleigh was at
the MON Depot yesterday.
He was not a bank president or a
millionaire And few hours before
ne had worn the stripes of a convict.
But there he stood-a free man, and
breathing the free air of Gods earth,
and smiling with the face of JOY he
could not utter.
Some five months ago James White
was sent to the State Prison from Cald-
well county. He was sentenced to five
years at hard labor. Mansiaughter the
jury had pronounced his crime. He
pleaded self-defense, and said the ne
gro he shot dead had tried to kill him,
and he fired to save his own life.
White had been deputy sheriff OF the
county, and was -thought-of by
his neighbors.
Governor Carr investigated the affair
and granted White his pardon.
And yesterday White walked out of
the prison walls, free man.
mo man can tell how | feel, he said
TO some men who had known him.
''You don't know what ii is to be free
until you have had your freedom taken
away from you"
He went back last night to his home
in Caldwell county, near Lenoir.
And there he takes up the thread OF
life where he laid it down.
