Saws for Sofsby

the Rankin county farm, with its
attendant labor and stripes, coarse
fare and coarse shoes; and thereby
hangs a tale. A pair of shoes was
rece1ved at the Farm the other day,
with the soles buIging unusually.
When examined, between the
leather of the soles, were found
four nice. sharp saws or files, two
in each sole.

covery of a pistol thought to be

the guards to keep close suryeil-

be grateful that his life was spared
him, guilty as he was Of the
heinous crime that showed no
mercy to an official in the discharge
Of sworn duty, in the line Of
which, unfortunately for him,
Sorsby's accounts in the handling
Iof moneys at the Clinton postofiice,
were found to be short. It was
for this Mr.. Fitzgerald was killed.
Chances for Sorsby's escape are
now very slim indeed; and pro-
