OF MRS. POPE

Scene.
BELIEVES In INNOCENCE
Clifton County Woman Accused Of
Mothers Murder.
Mrs.. PoSe Has been HELD In the Mont-
Eensry jan for several Days
Pending the Finding OF
the Grand Jury.


Il am going to Clanton tonight. and
I expect to have my sister cleared OF
the charge Of numbering her mother,
Mrs. Mary King, within the next Few
days. am confident that my sister u
innocent of the charge, and ! think !
can convince the authorities at Clanton
OF her innocence.
This was the statement made BY q
brother OF Mrs. Hattie !. Pope. VINO is
ut present confined In the Montgomery
County jail charged with the murder
OF her mother, the crime having been
committed during February last.
Saturday night one OF the brothers
Of Mrs. Pope came TO Montgomery ts
see his sister, and also to meet another
brother from Texas Neither the Sner-
III nor the tailers learned the given
names Of the two brothers, and 1t first
neither OF the brothers would say .
word OF their conference with their
sister.
saturday night, however. the brother
from Texas talked with one OF the jail
ers in the corridors of the prison, mak-
ing the statement that after hts long
talk with his sister ne was convinced
of her innocence. and that he would go
TO Clanton and would attempt to con-
vince the authorities of Chiffon Coun-
ty OF the truth Of his views. Just wnat
method he would pursue on reaching
clanton and before the court. would
not be divtrlged, but the brother talked
with great confidence of his powers to
persuade the authorities OF the inno-
cence OF his sister.
Refuses to Talk.
Since her transfer to the Montgorn-
cry County Jail Mrs. Pope has denied
herself to all visitors. nor will she talk
TO either Shsrtn Hood or to the jail
ers. She seems to be OF the opinion
that any statement she might make
would ruin her chances Of being cleared
of the murder charge, and until the
visit OF her Texas brother Saturday
night and sunday morning. everything
relating to the solution OF the appar-
emit mysterious murder of the aged Mrs.
King has been made public through the
officials at Clanton.
The brother who lives near Monte
valio was present at the conferences
between his elder brother from Texas
and his sister. but he made no state
ment as to the course which would
be pursued to clear the sister. Dur
ing the visit to Montgomery. the
younger brother. beyond bare civiiities
20 the jailers and the Sheriff, had no,h-
ing whatever 10 say either or his sis
ter, the crime or his efforts to secure
his sisters release.
The brothers have not stated whether
they would return TO Montgomery after
their efforts at Montevallo or not. It
Is probable. however. that the elder
brother from Texas will stop over In
hrontnomery for day. on his way back
20 Texa&, in the event that his efforts
ko secure the release or his sister from
custody proves fruitleso.
