CARR DISAPPOINTED;
He WANTED JUDGE
TO IMPOSE DEATH

We'll, thought that that young
fellow, Keller, was going to get
a death sentence for me, but the
old judge couldn't see it that way
and now I am to suffer worse
than death all the remainder Of
my life said Eli Carr when he
was being taken to the Jail this
morning after his trial.
II wish the judge would have
given me the other sentence a
thousand times. But he can't be
blamed, he did what he thought
was right and now his conscience
is clear"

Carr GETS LIFE term:
RUSHED TO STATE PRISON
after QUIET HEARING

A final chapter written into the records of one
of the most brutal crimes in the citys history when Eli
S. Carr aged IS, murderer of Police Officers George M
Little and Elmer Stephenson, appeared before Judge
Henry c. Fox in Wayne circuit court early today and
entered plea of guilty to affidavit charging him with
murder in the first degree for the Staying of Officer
Stephenson.
Judge Fox, despite the earnest plea of Prosecutor
Will w. Keller for the maximum penalty, death by eec-
trocution sentenced Carr to Imprisonment for life This
had been anticipated because of Judge Foxs well known
opposition to capital punishment.
