GETS MAN FREED
Obtains Pardon for Changing
Prisoner That He May Be
With Dying Wife.

In order that he might be with his dy-
Ing wife in her last hours. and upon the
urgent petition of Mrs George Brown,
wife Of the mayoralty candidate, Gov
ernor Joseph NJ. Brown late yesterday
afternoon pardoned l.. J. Poe for a mis-
demeanor, and ordered his immediate re-
lease
Poe was sent up from Fulton county
Tor twelve months a few weeks ago, for
impersonating an officer of the law and
Illegally undertaking to perfect a justice
court process
Soon after he was Sent to the changing,
his wife gave birth to a child, and since,
she has been desperately i'll and partially
paralyZed.
Can Live Only Few Days.
Her pitiable condition came to the at
tention of Mrs. Brown, and the destitu-
ton of her home impressed that kind
hearted woman deeply
physicians told Mrs. Brown that the
woman could live only a few DAYS. and
Tor three days she had been pathetically
and half-deliriously calling for her hus-
band
Finally, Mrs. Brown went directly to
the governor and asked him to pardon the
man. or at least, arrange for him to be
Il
child In the dying hours of the mother.
The governor responded instantly. He
called up Judge Calhoun, before whom the
man was tried. and asked him about the
case Judge Calhoun added his plea for
mercy to Mrs. Browns
Takes Him to Wlfe's Side.
The governor told Mrs Brown to come
back to see him In two hours, and she
should have her answer
AT i've in the afternoon, Mrs Brown
motored to the capitol, and the governor
handed her pardon for Poe
Like good fairy. proceeding not in a
golden chariot, but in the more modern
automobile Mrs. Brown left the capitol.
and, disregarding all speed limits, drove
10 the county changing, got the prisoner,
and rushed him to the dying wfe's bed
side.
into the gloom in the humble house
hold, Mrs. Browns act of genuine mercy
and friendliness shot a searching ray of
sunshine The wife still was able to rec
ognize the husband, and his presence was
JOY and comfort. This morning, she
was reported calmer, but she is not ex-
pected to live the week out.
Given Sum Of Money, Too.
Poe Is sincerely grateful to the gov
ornor Tor his release, but for Mrs George
Brown, the angel of mercy In the desti-
tute home, his words Of appreciation are
faltering and disconnected, for they are
mingled with tears.
A sum of money was made up yester-
day to pay the prisoners fne-which, as
alternative to his changing sensence
Judge Calhoun had imposed-but. al Mrs
Browns suggestion, this money was held
back and subsequently turned over to the
released prisoner, for Mrs Brown was
| sure the Governor would release Poe.
| Although in destitute circumstances to-
day, Mrs Poe is said to come Of a family
prominent in Atlanta before the war. one
member Of which once served a term as
mayor of the city.
