His re- lease was asked by many leading citi- zens of North Alabama The governor says of the action taken: "This man was convicted in St. Clair of forgery in the second degree and sentenced to the peni- tentiary for six years. He was sem fenced April 23, 1903. He has now served about half of his term Statements made to me by undoubtedly reputable people from the immediate neighborhood where he grew up and has lived most of his life show that he has been a nervous wreck for many years, and that he is more subject of sympathy and pity than punishment The board of pardons recommends that he be paroled. His peti- tion is signed by all the county officials of Marshall county where he has always lived and by a great number of the rep the petition. It Is ordered that he be psroled subject to his future lawabiding conduct"
