such as to make the suggestion most
tempting one, no man in the congrega-
tion evidently had tine courage TO 20
against convention. with the result that
none of them took advantage of the
suggestion.
In suggesting that his male congrega

Threats of trouble began TO develop
as the day progressed. BY mid
forenoon it was evident that the lack
of a hostile demonstration was due
10 the slowness with which the news
spread.
Downtown streets began to be con-
gested especially about the city hall
and postofice. At the Henry Grady
Monument five arrests we're made
when orders 10 move on we're disre-
garded by mountaineers from Mari
eta county, Mary Phagan's home.
Marietta and Forsyth streets were
packed and city hall and postoiiice
were filled with policemen In ;he
thoroughfares mounted officers did
their hest to keep the throngs moving.
What can they do-with Frank
four hours away?" a police captain
was asked.
1T isn't Frank they're talking
about" replied the officer significant
". ITS Governor Slaton."
The governor remained at his coun-
try home. three miles from the city
and announced he would send his
statement in by messenger
Frank was accompanied 10 the
prison farm by Sheriff Mangum and
A strong posse of deputies. His de-
parture from the jail was a secret
that even his own friends did not
know of until some time after 1t oc-
Cured
Atlanta. contrary to fears of mob
violence, was relieved by the uneX-
pected news of Franks commutation.
Jail attendants we're nearly as
much surprised as we're outsiders.
All arrangements had been made to
make the execution go off as smoothly
as possible. It would have been the
eighth hanging of Sheriff Mangum's
career.
The name Of Mary Phagan. whom
Frank was convicted of numbering
was frequently heard after announce
ment was made of the communication
Expressions Of dissatisfaction with
the communication were common also
but there was nothing like the 'io-
lence Of tone which had been feared
and expected.
The strain Of the situation has been
tremendous and the feeling of relief
at the swapping of the tension prob
ably had something to do with the al
most apathetic reception of the out
come. The suddenness of the an
thorities' action also took the people
by surprise and il was evident that
they had hardly had time TO adjust
themselves to the latest development
Frank was said to have taken the
news of his commutation with iron
composure which has marked him
ever since his arrest. Jail officials
said he hardly even seemed to show
relief. That he really felt the con
hdence he has all along expressed
that he would escape the gallows was
generally believed
What he said could not immedi.
ately be learned Indeed. he left the
Jail so quietly that, except the Off.
GERS who accompanied him, few o.
the attendants knew he was going un
til he actually was gone.
Speculation was already rife as t
what step Franks friends would TAXI
next The fear of the moose having
been removed, il was considered ;

fort would be to secure a reopenin'
