William Eyler Likely to Spend
His Days in Prison.

The proceedings in behalf of a pardon
for William Eyler, the Adams county
man who committed murder in Gettys-
burg Decoration day in 1906, did not last
long before the State Board of Pardons
in Harrisburg Wednesday last and indi-
cations are that Eyler will remain in
prison. He was granted communication in
1907 on plea that he did not know what
he was doing and various extenuating
circumstances, after the Supreme court
had refused to set aside verdict or MUIR
der in the first degree and the death
sentence had been imposed.
Wednesday the Rev. Kenneth M. Craig
a clergyman from Emmitsburg, Md,
where Eyler formerly lived, made plea
for him. Mr.. Craig is somewhat noted
as an author and poet and earnestly ask.
ed that Eyler be pardoned as he had
atoned for his crime. Opposition was
made by District Attorney Robert E.
While and John D. Keith, of Gettysburg,
who was district attorney when the case
was tried. The arguments were cut
short by remarks from the bench that
the case was remembered and that there
was little favor for pardon. --Waynes-
