the river running beside him. 1t was
early summer, and the cool night air
was sweet with the fragrance OF
breathing flowers and fields.
Ahead Of him showed the northern
boundary lights OF Tarrytown. Once
be looked over his shoulder as he ran,
but he could not see the lanterns OF
the hunters. He was beginning to
gather stronger hope Of ultimate es-
cape when the will-o' -the-wtsp lights
showed ahead Of him. He stopped
short In his tracks.

Montgomery ran to the rivers edge
and stripped of the heavy prison
shoes. He peeled off tie blood soaked
socks and from one OF them took the
money Bill had given him. This he
tied In an end Of his shirt under the
blouse. Then he hid the shoes and
socks under pile Of rubbish and wad-

The clouds still covered the stars
overhead, and the river was black as
a river of ink. AS the water reached
his armpits he threw himself forward
and began to swim with quiet, un-
derhand stroke for the other shore.
The tide was flowing out, and be be-

advantage Of the current. He figured
that, with steady stroke, he would
land Just south of Nyack and in the
great, friendly shadow Of Grand View.
Reaching the middle Of the river, he
changed his stroke. Until now he had
kept his shoulders under water, swim
ming underhanded. Now he used the
fast and powerful overland swing of
the arms, resting himself from time to
time by rolling on either side and u.s.
ing the easier side stroke.
He reached the net poles and paused
to get his wind, but he was off again
In q moment and soon made the shore.

STATEMENT
Given Out By City Solicitor
Harry ". Moons
Regarding Supreme Courts
Decision And How 1t
Effects Mt. Vernon

City Solicitor Harry W. Rooms was
in Columbus on Friday to consult with
state officials relative to the proposed
improvements to be made in Mt. Yer
non and the bond issues.
eOn Saturday morning the city So
licitor gave out the following state
ment to the Banner;
The bond issue for the city hall
will have to be changed by providing
for levy to retire each bond as 1t
accrues, and to pay the interest on
the bonds. Inasmuch as the bond or
dinance has not been published, it
means only matter of few weeks
delay.
THE issue for the Chestnut street
and Norton street storm sewers are
not affected by recent supreme court
decision, as they were authorized be-
fore the amendment to the constitu-
tion.
The bond issue for the city's share
Oh the several paving and sanitary
sewer jobs are not now complete as
they stand, but Asst. Atty. Gen. Laylin
gave "a verbal opinion that supple
mental ordinances may be passed pro-
viding for the proper levy, and thereby
avoid repassing the legislation.
There will probably be no action
taken until this advice is officially
made in writing
THE substance of the supreme
courts opinion was that the provision
of the constitution in Article II, Sec.
II, is intended to be automatic and
goes into effect without any legisla-
ton by the General Assembly.
mt. Vernon is especially fortunate
in this matter, as none of her bonds
have been sold. Many thousands of
dollars are affected in numerous cities
of the state where the bonds have al
ready been sold"
