Judge and Peacemaker.

Judge George Williams Gage was
holding court at Greenville, S. c.,
last week. Greenville lies at the
foothills of the Blue Ridge noun
tains and among it's people are many
stalwart mountain folk. Some OF
them have been engaged at times in
converting the little corn they have
been able to grow on their mountain
slopes into marketable form against
the peace and dignity of the United
States, and there has been at times
much activity among the revenue
officers in that part of the State.
The mountaineers of Greenville
are very sturdy sort. They are
stout friends and bitter enemies.
They belong to class that does not
take offense easily, but a class that
does not forget injuries. There has
been developed among them bitter
feuds that have gone down from
father to son one generation after
another. The Ropers and the Trot-
ters have not been getting along
we'll. Two young men representing
these respective families were tried
before Judge Gage last week for as
sault and battery, and while the trial
was in progress, Judge Gage left the
bench, asked the fathers of the two
young men to 60 with him into, a
jury room and there he sought to
make peace between these two men,
close neighbors and both men good
citizens; and begged them to bury the
enmity existing between their famili-
es. He failed in his purpose, but it
was a noble effort for him to have
made and when he returned to the
bench he announced in open court
what he had tried to accomplish, say
ing that if the present feeling con-
tinued it would result in homicide
and in the trial of somebody for
murder, and that in the sight of God
these fathers would be responsible
for it.
Judge Gage further stated that he
blamed the fathers for the present
situation far more than he blamed
the sons, though the sons technically
violated the laws of the State. They
were convicted and upon their con-
viction they were sentenced by
Judge Gage to the chaingang, with
out the alternative of fines, the SEN
tence, however, being suspended
during their good behavior.
This was a noteworthy incident in
the administration of justice. We are
not at all surprised that the conduct
of Judge Gage should have ex.
cited the admiration Of all the good
people of the community. There Is
no provision, we believe, for such
'procedure'' as this, and it stands
out in the history of South Carolina
as the only instance of where the
presiding Judge has sought in this
way to promote peace in disturbed
communities and to convert enemies
into friends, all to the greater honor
of the State and the promotion OF
the ends of justice. Richmond

]. c. Bailey Describes Execution in
England Forty-Four Years Ago.
Ian on FIFTEEN AT THE TrNE
Says that Hanging Was Horrifying
Scene and that While There
Was Much Talk at Time,
There was No Riot.

Employed In the offices Of Chief Cos
grove of the Pacific Fruit Express
company in the Union Pacific headquar-
ters building is J. G. Bailey, who forty
four years ago today, was a witness
to the hanging in Manchester, England,
Of Allen, Larkin and O'Brlen, the Fenians
accused of attempting to overthrow the
English government and who have been
referred to as the Manchester Mar
tyrs."
AT the time of the execution Mr.. Bailey
was a boy Is years of age, employed as
a messenger with the Lanohastershire &
Yorkshire railroad, his duty being to
carry kilograms and run errands.
The morning Of the execution, Novem-
Der 90, 1897, Mr.. Bailey. together with a
number OF the other employees. went to
the roof of the depot, and from this point
of vantage were witnesses TO the execu-
ton OF the three men. Describing II, Mr..
Bailey said:
Il think it was about 10 o'clock in the
morning that perhaps dozen of young
fellows climbed to the roof Of the depot
to look over into the new Bailey jail
yard, two blocks away.
Reports of RiOting.
During the night before the execu-
ton. there had been reports that an at
tempt would be made to rescue Allen,
Larkin and 'OBnen when they were
taken from their cells and escorted TO
the galows. AS a result all OF the
streets around the square I'm which the
Jail was located. was filled with soldiers.
A. high stockade had been built. around
the jail and the grounds and no person
was permitted to approach nearer than
twenty to thirty yards. II they at
tempted to get nearer. they were driven
back at the point OF bayonets. There
were great crowds in all of the side
streets but there was little disorder,
There was some jeering, but as the crowd
seemed to lack leader and was disor-
ganized, no attempt was made to rescue
any of the men.
Shortly after getting onto the roof Of
the depot, the three condemned men were
brought out through doors on the ground
floor of the Jail and each accompanied
by two jailers, with a large number OF
guards in front and behind, marched tC
the scaffold, fifty to seventy-five feet
