PARDON FOR FRANEBERGER.
Examining Physicians Certified That He Fad
General tuberculosis

The Governor yesterday issued a par
don for Ed Frcneberger, of Iredell
county who was convicted of obtaining
fifty cents worth of goods upon a forged
order in August, 1900. and sentenced to
five years in Jail With privilege of COM
missioners TO work him upon the county
roads
The examining physicians certified to
the Governor that the prisoner was SUI
fering from general tuberculosis, his
condition being such that he would never
recover if kept confined, and even if
given his liberty he would never fully
recover, and that without any doubt
continued confinement in Jail would re-
suit speedily in death. The certificate
further recommended the pardon, not on
ly for Fronebergers sake, but for the
good of the Other prisoners, as he was a
source of infection, and dangerous to the
health of the inmates. This was the
view of the superintendent of Health
and also Of another member OF the board
