Senator Brady and H. e. Don Carlos of

placed themselves on record as being in

of this city, who took a deep interest in
Henry Clay Beattie, jr., while in prison,
today made public a letter from Beattie,
the envelope of which was postmarked 2
a. m. the morning of the electrocution of
the young wife murderer. The letter fol-
lows:
Dear Mr.. Gates: I am unable to think
of words that would fully express my APP
probation of the interest which you
seemed to take in trying to prepare me
for the great beyond; though I can assure
you that your efforts were not all in
vain. So many things in the Bible you eX-
planned to me which never understood
before. 1 only hope and pray that you
will be able to enlighten Others so that
they may be prepared. If I were free 1
would ask for no greater JOY than to
bring others to God
''One night I will never forget and that
was the occasion when your wife and
dear little girls sang for me. Give my
love to them and remember that 1 am
praying for you ALL that God be with
you till me meet again Farewell
