He did not even employ a lawyer for his de- fense, but acknowledged to all the details connected with the case. The court had to appoint lawyer to de-
 fend him in order that his convic- tiOn might be legal. All those con- nected with the trial, the attorney general and all others acquainted with the facts, agree that Pullem could not have been convicted at all if he had not acknowl >d 5ed commit ting the murder. He asks for no len iency except that his life be spared and that he be given a life iime inn prisonment in the penitentiary. The trial judge asks that this be done. The prosec uting attorneys asks il. A large part of the jury which tried him request it, the circuit judge elect recommends it. In addition to these, the county judge, sheriff, and other county officials recommend it. Be- sides, more than one thousand citi- zens of the county ask that it be done.
