WILL NOT HANG.
Sentence For Hoyt Hayes COMMITTED
To Life Term-Governor
Heyward's Statement.

Hoyt Hayes will not be hanged.
Gov. Hayward has commuted his
sentence to life imprisonment in the
state penitentiary. This action was
based principally on the decision OF
an expert examiner of questioned
handwriting. Hayes had been con-
victed of having killed his wife, and
the evidence was purely circumstan-
tial, with nothing to show motive,
and for that reason it appealed to the
governor that there might be cause
for doubt; the statement of the ex-
pert increases that feeling Of doubt
to such an extent that Gov. Hayward
is unwilling to see the man suffer the
death penalty. On the other hand he
does not grant an unconditional par
don for that reason that there are so
many circumstances unfavorable to
the accused that a communication OF
sentence seems to him to be the only
alternative.
The whole question seemed to rest
ON the truth or falsity OF the state
ment that the note signed by the dead
woman had been written by her.
State held it was forgery. Governor
Howard submitted the matter to an
expert of international reputation and
then came to his decision. The gov
ernor's statement, in part, was as tol-
lows:
THE state claims that this note was
tive for the crime The defense re-
lied upon the theory that the deceas-
ed committed suicide and not was
produced, claimed by the defense to
be in her handwriting. This note
reads as follows:
LULA
"I am treated we'll by Hoyt but l
had rather die than to have the pain
and sickness OF motherhood, there
fore I write 10 let you know did
it.
The state claims that this rot was
forgery by defendant, produced by
him in order u furnish the toUnda-
ton of a deiensc.
The question then. who wrote this
nore was q most material clrcu1n-
stance to be considered in this case.
Testimony OF local experts was had
at the trial, the prepoudcra'ce OF
such evidence being in favor OF the
cenu;nencss of the paper. Realizing
this to be most material point in
the case I sent all the written exhibits

The Goth of October.

We have planned To have a
"Work Day" offering in favor of
the Epworth Orphanage. on Oct.
the Goth. inst. We desire to have
as many people as will to donate
their earnings Of that day to the
support Of the Orphanage.
There are thousands Of men and
women, boys and girls, who could
we'll afford to give the earnings OF
one day to the support of a cause
so worthy and deserving as that Of
providing for the more than one
hundred fatherless little ones placed
under the care OF the Methodist
church in South Carolina, for support
and training. 1t will be small
matter to the individual to make
this contribution, but the gifts Of
the many will aggregate helpful
sum for the care of the orphans.
Let some one be appointed in every
community to take charge of the
offerings and remit to lis, but It
preferable the individual may send
his own offering. We hope the
children throughout the state will
be encouraged TO take an active part
in this matter, and that all the friends
Of the Orphans will cooperate with
us in making the day a success.

used on trial to Mr.. David N. Car
valho of New York the most prom,-
nent expert examiner Of questioned
handwriting. inks and paper in Amer
ica. with the request that he render
an opinion. After keeping the papers
several days he returned them with
his report
"Mr. Calvalho is entirely dlsinter-
ested and while his opinion was not
tested by examination in court, 1t
shows that the state may have erred
in charging the defendant with for
gerry, in order to conceal his crime.
This presents a case where there is a
strong possibility that the circuIn-
stances now showing the defendants
guilt may, in the future, be explained
away. l cannot bring myself to au-
thorize the inhiction of the death sen-
tence, which would now and forever
prevent any correction Of the mis-
take, should these circumstances be
explained.
