SENDS MESSAGES TO MOTHER Err
r,sude Allen Asks Sweetheart to Con-
vey Them to woman OF
Woe"

Richmond. Jan. 20.-Mlss Meme
Wissler, the mountain sweetheart Oh
Claude Swanson Allen, on Saturday
Maid a final visit to the death cells TO
ten her lover good bye. On Friday
the young woman, escorted by victor
Allen, spent one hour and thirty MN
utes in the underground vaults OF
tbe penitentiary where she and Claude
ronversed in minor tones OF the sunny
nat amid the Carroll county hills and
If IRE awful shadow which had sub
seouenrly fallen around their paths.
Miss Wissler aold Claude how she
had called upon Govern Or Mann and
how the chief executive of the cob
.7,onwealth had received her most
kindly and conversed with her IN a
fatherly manner. She said that she
had thanked his excellcncy for the
last reprieve and tears stood IN her
ewes as she held out her hand to her
lover and said: 81 did all I could for
you, Claude"
While the lovers were in conference
guard of the prison stood in the
shadow, and never did his eyes leave
them. By speaking in undertoneS
there was some privacy to the CONVEX
sation,. but not for one moment did
the steel-barred door turn on its him
ges, or the grating Of the iron cage
move it's barrier.
Miss Wissler said that Claude AL
len had sent a few messages to his
mother by her and that she did not
think he was looking so well as when
she had last seen him. She said that
Floyd appeared more cheerful 'Jhan
she had expected to find him, but that
confinement was telling upon both men
and that Claude Allen looked paler
than usual.
The young woman expressed very
sincere appreciation for the gentle
manner in which she had been received
by Governor Mann yesterday OF
whom she said: "The governor IS a
very nice and kind old man and I be-
lieve he wants to do what is right" |
only pray that he will wait just lit
tie, for l feel that the truth must
come out sooner or later. l only hope
that it will not come too late"
Miss Wissler said that she and
Claude Allen had been schoolmates to-
gether until the young man went to
college and she to boarding school.
After this they had become engaged to
be married. The illness and death of
her mother delayed the intended we'd
ding and then came the tragedy at
Hillsville. The evening that Claude
was placed under arrest his sweeth-
heart was awaiting him at her home,
where he was to have gone by ap-
pointment.

Although it was at first feared that

fair. shortly after daylight, Monday

the Sisters hospital. Later in the
forenoon Drs. NJ. S. Goodrich and N

bullet entered the body at the lower
part of the abdomen and passed
through it, coming out on the right
side of the buttocks. An opening
three inches long was sewed up in
the bladder and five drains We're in

the physicians to give the wound a
thorough cleaning. DUDE came out of

afternoon and his chances for recovery

Monday evening.
