noon that neither Mrs. Edwards nor nor
Greason Will ever hang. II
Counsel for Mrs: Edwards and the
negro. Greason, left here at seven
o'clock this morning for Harrisburg
to lay! before the Board Of PardonB
petition for Communication Of
sentence, but few believed 1t would
be ayailing. ,35
While outside in the prison yard
the carpenters were quietly preparing
the gallows, Mrs. Edwards sat: on
her cot in her narrow cell, this morn
ing, rayaged by recurring commissions
and of a nervous complaint and the
victim Of her own contending emo.
tions. The wretched woman was in a
state of almost complete collapse.
They said OF her at the prison this
morning that the. woman's life pass
ed out when little Alma, the child Of
her illicit love was taken from her
on Monday and sent away. The lit
tie girl will be taught to forget her
mother, who bore and raised her
within the prison walls, after her ar:
rest. Mrs. Edwards thinks only of
Alma and her children scattered over
the country, and broods on the mem.
cries Of other days. When not over.
come by commissions and hysteria
the woman stares at the brick walls
across from the cell door-alone with
her thoughts-for neither Mrs. Ed
wards nor Greason have death
watch. The prison matron, Mrs. Sal
lie Newcomet, makes her rounds Of
tho corridors through the day and
stops. for a few moments to comfort
the woman, but the condemned are
not kept under constant surveillance
do you think the Board Of Par
dons will act favorably on my petit
tion ?" she asked plaintively this
morning.
1T can mean SO little to the State
to hang me out there in the prison
yard. If they would but commute
my sentence to life imprisonment
Maybe they could come and see me
in the prison II could live out my
days in pleasant thoughts Of them as
they made their way through life a.
happy as mine has been wretched ant
bitter"
Eve must all hope for the best
said Matron Newcomet, simply.
81 have lived so much in hope arr
nothing has come of it,"jsaid Mrs
Edwards quietly as if speaking t
herself.
"NIy memories are all that is lef
Of me. Early this morning befor,
the coming of the gray light, whicl
fills the passage and tells me that an
other day has come, sat here an,
thought Of my early married day
when knew no shame and spent TIL
hours happily with my children a
our home. How they laughed an
played around the porch and house
They grew older and were sent t
school and even the hours they wer
: at school seemed long TO me. Thos
were happy days and lean only liv
{ them again in memory and that 10
will only last for a few hours more.
Then sin came with curses an
beatings from the father OF my chi
lren, and ] was made to drink. An
Greason came into my life and the
the months of dread fear of exposur
