Aa parole of unusual interest has
been granted by Governor Blease.
The governor has given R. A. Adams,
the colleton county man. his liberty.
He was convicted after a long trial
in the county court at Walterboro
and sentenced to hang. His sentence
was later commuted to life impris-
onment and he entered the peniten-
tiary in 1908. This was an unusual
case. Adams killed a man and es-
capped. The citizens Of Colleton
county offered reward Of $500 and
Governor Hayward offered and addi-
tional $500. Governor Hayward re-
fused to offer the reward for the ar
rest of Adams dead Or alive, taking
the position that it would be legalized
murder to make that provision.
