Aged Couple Travelled
Miles EDery Month to
Plead for Son S Pardon

With the announcement Thursday
morning that Governor Brown had
paroled James Bruce. convict serving
ty camp for robbery, comes flight a
story. involving the answering loyalty
and devotion of an aged and illiterate
mountaineer couple for their erring son
Bruce, who is about thirty years old
and married, lived near his parents in
the mountains of Pickcns county.
About two and half years ago he was
convicted of robbery. The story told to
the jury by the young mountaineer and
to which he has stuck ever since was
that he<and two companions gave a man
some money with which to get them
some whisky. The man produced some
whisky. but not the quantity named in
the purchase. A demand was made
upon him for the full amount of liquor
or return of the money.
When the liquor vendor refused to
comply with the demand Bruce and his
companions seized him and by force
took from him the money which they
had previously paid for the liquor.
During the two and a half years the
young man has been on the chain gang
his parents have made regular monthly
trips to Atlanta to plead with the prison
commission in his behalf They are
very poor people and when they could
not get, sufficient money for the rail-
road fare the old father, John Bruce,
would put his wife upon the train and
walk the seventy miles from his home
in Pickens county to Atlanta. The old
couple always brought their food sup
plies with them
While in Atlanta they would haunt
the Offices Of the prison commission beg
cling that their boy be returned to them.
one day last week Chairman r. z. Da-
wilson received a poorly scrawled post
card from the father on which he wrote
that longing for his son was causing
him much suffering. He declared the
days passed too slowly and concluded
by asking that his boy be sent home
in time to eat /ThYhhsgiving dinner with
his parents.
The loug-deferred hope of the old cou-
pie has at last been realized ard on
Thursday afternoon James Bruce will
leave the Rockdale camp for I'ickens
county.

draw attention to what is known as this
garlic bank" He described it as one
of the biggest banking swindles in ex-
istence and said no law for the regula.
ton of private banks should be made
without including it.
THE Garlic Bank is started he said,
by an Italian whose only asset is his
ingenuity. He becomes secretary for
whole community of Italians, who know
nothing about American ways Of doing
business. Then he starts a bank.
las soon as the first deposits come In
the banker invests them in a grocery.
The first decoration of an Italian groc-
cry is a string of garlic in the window.
As he prospers they become more nu-
merous.
ITO the ignorant Italian these strings
look like real money. The grocer be-
comes famous for his wealth and de-
posits come pouring in to him. He pays
no interest and gives no receipts. Then
he disappears. An investigation follows
and it is found the garlic banker has
left no address and his only assets are
found to be strings of garlic"
Mr. Nicolai says in the last two years

failed. Hundreds of families, he said.

their willingness to stand any expense
necessitated by additional accommoda,-
tions for the young men to be desig-
mated by them.

The petitions of these newspapers,
Ike similar ones previously received,
had to be declined. 1t is necessary
that The Journals party be limited. and
it will be quite impossible for this
