BOY FREED; FINE
BACK To PARENTS
State to Return Money Poor
Couple in ireland Raised to
Aid Their Son.

Governor Brown today committed to
present service. which is four months,
the sentence of Albert Carroll, convict
ed in the city court for larceny.
The executive specifically directed in
the order of release that certain funds
raised by the young mans poor parents
in Ireland, with which to pay a fine
also assessed against Carroll, be re-
turned to them, as he understood, upon
reliable information, that they were in
destitute circumstances and had raised
the money with extreme difficulty
The governor was impelled to this
rather unusual course by reason of the
fact that Carroll, who has not been in
America long, returned all of the goods
stolen-a few automobile supplies-and
had been, in every way, model pris-
oner
The man had written the old folks
back home to send him the money-$75
to pay off the fine, which they did, ac-
companied by a very pathetic letter,
reciting their poverty, but still ardent
love for their son in America.
The governor did not think the state
of Georgia needed that money and 1t
will be sent back. A local Episcopal
minister, who interested himself in the
case, has the money in hand, and will
return it TO CAROLS parents imme-
diately.
