Old Man Rawlings Makes
,Confe 5sion--T h e Condemn
ed Man Says He Hired Alf
Moore to Kill Carter, But
Not the Children.
Valdosta, Ga, Daily Times.

MS SONS. m1ltOn, OeSeo duu heOu-
ard, is being argued before the
supreme court in Atlanta today,
Solicitor General Thomas having
left here last night to be on hand
and represent the state. In the
meantime, the elder Rawlings
makes an interesting statement
which will be found below:
The most important statement
that has been made by j. q
Rawlings since the murder of the
Garter children, was made last
Saturday afternoon in the pre-
sence of a Times reporter, Sheriff
Passmore, Mr.. Tube Swindle and
MIR. Orrin Register, who was his
near neighbor and who was a
member of the coroner's jury
which investigated killing.
This statement appeared TO be
the first determined effort which
Rawlings has made to shield his
sons by taking the blame upon
himself. He confessed to hav-
ing hired Alf Moore to "put old
man Carter out of the way" the
deal being effected through Joe
Bently.
He also says that Alf Moore
was given positive instructions
not to harm a one of those chill
dren at Cartefs house. He says
that he wanted Alf to go over to
Frank Turner's house and stay
until the time came to do the
work, but that A!f would not do
that, saying that he did not even
want Frank Turner to know he
was there. Rawlings says that
he then told him to go TO the
little house in the field and that
he carried his dinner to him
there.
He positively denies that
either of his boys were at Carter's
at the time of the killing, and
says that Alf Moroe went there
that afternoon for the purpose of
killing Carter, but Garter would
not come to the gate when ALI
called him out. He says that
the killing of the children was
not in the program, and that ALI
told Joe Bently that they were
killed because the Garter boy
came out with his rifle, Alf claim
ing to act in self defense.
wEPT AS HE TOLD HIS STORY.
The scene in the county Jail
was dramatic as the father of the
condemned boys, himself con
demned to death upon the gal
lows, story incriminating him
self, but rigidly defending his
sons and others who have been
mentioned in connection with the
case.
He wept like a child as he
spoke about his position in the
neighborhood and the confidence
which his neighbors had always
placed in him.
what | hate worst of ALL"
he said, "is having impeached
the confidence of my neighbors
aud friends, but the provocation
was greater than any man can

warrant was issued this afternoon
for the arrest of Daniel thinner
man, former bookkeeper and con-
tidential clerk in the state treas.
urer's office, upon an affidavit
sworn to by State Treasurer r.
ii. Jennings, charging him with
Il breach OF trust with fraudulent
intention and the theft of state
bonds of the value of $12,500
which, with accrued interest, ag-
gregate SIC, ,403.73.
Zimmerman, who is a member
of one of the Oldest aud most
highly respected families in South
Carolina, is about 50 years old,
and has resided in Columbia with
his family since 1891, coming
here from Orangeburg county.
He served in the capacity OF book
keeper from 1892 until 1902, un-
der three different state treas
urers, w. T. @. Bates, w. 81.
Zimmerman and the incumbent.
These officers are liable for any
shortage during their term of Of
fee, the liabilities being about
as follows: W. 7. @. Bates, ST..
200; w. 81. Zimmerman, $40, 500,
and r. 81. Jennings, 81 400.
| 1t is alleged that the fraud was
committed when a party having
bonds might prefer estate stock"
in exchange. The papers would
be presented and the transfer
made. Then instead Of cancell-
ing the clerk in charge apparent
ly would take out one of the
bonds when there would be a
large package, and at some con-
venient date, would put it on the
market as if it were a negotiable
instrument instead of bond.
The bonds of the state were. pay
able to bearer, just as a bank
note or other currency, and the
stock payable to order only.
1t is said that irregularities
were discovered some time ago
and efforts had been made to get
Zimmerman to explain them, but
it is alleged that he failed to
keep several engagements to Wis
it the Office and clear up the
matter.
Before issuing the warrant this
afternoon two of the former treas.
urers visited Zimmerman home
to prepare him for what was COM
ing and to make a last effort to
settle the matter outside the
aw if possible. Reaching his
home they were informed that he
was at local insurance office, in
which he is now employed. Co.
ing to his Office they were told
that Zimmerman had just left.
Up to a late hour tonight the
warrant had not been served, the
sheriff being unable to locate
Zimmerman.
