SWORE FALSELY AGAINST HIM.

She Accused Him of a FeIOniOus As

Character-InStead of Remaining
on a High Pedestal of Virtue She
Has Fallen to the Depth of Dis
grace.
Atlanta, March 19.-GOv. Atkinson to-
day granted a pardon TO Sim. Dean,
young white man sent to the penitentiary
three years ago from McDufie county to
serve a term of seven years for assaulting
Pady Dorsey. the daughter OF neighbor-
ing family.
The case is particularly interesting from
the fact that now. after the young man has
served nearly half Of the term imposed
upon him by the court for the crime he
was convicted OF, the girl, who was the
sole witness against him, comes forward
and admits that he is innocent. She sent
him to tho penitentiary, she confesses, TO
save her character. but during the years
that he has been serving in chains. she
has fallen to the depths OF disgrace in
stead of being saved by the sacrificing
of an innocent mans reputation and lib
erty.
At the time of the trial Dean was shown
TO have been of exemplary character, but
that did not weigh against the girls word.
Recently members of the girls family
declared that they did not believe Dean
was guilty and a movement to secure his
pardon was then begun. When Pady Dor
sey was approached she confessed, and
the case was at once placed in Gov. At
kinsons hands, with the recommendation
of all the court officials and many others
who knew the facts and were anxious to
see Dean liberated
