The meeting between the brothers
was arranged by the parents, who be-

meeting between the two brothers in
his presence and asked the deputy to
watt until he was ready to go before
he showed Adry up the Jail stairs. He

babe his brother farewell for the time

in the doorway, and the two stopped
for brief time and shook hands The

assembled the stairs to the corridor
where Harry stood calmly awaiting
him. They addressed each other i'm a
friendly manner after which Harry re-
quested the deputies to withdraw a |
distance to allow him to speak to his |
brother confidently. The officials did |
as requested. What passed between |
the two brothers was not heard by any |
person until Harry raised his voice to |
say: Now I have done my part. 1 |
have forgiven You all you have done. |
Now you do as I ask" |

Adry appealingly.

played good part, but now 1 can tell

that purpose. You damned villain. II

brains with knife. I would tear out
your heart with my hands I would
crush the two together. cut them into
pieces. squeeze out the Juice, make II
