HERE'S A REAL
PRISON RECORD
Nine Of Thirty Three Years
Spent Behind Bars
COURT VERY LENIENT
Considers That Aged Mother OF
Young Man Needs His Support
And Gives Him 30 Days
For Four Offenses

Thirty-three years of age and with
a prison record of Q years, was the
remarkable statement to Judge Full
ton by Walter Woods, says the New
ark American-Tribune.
In times past Woods has given sew
eral bad half-hours to the railway po-
lice and occasionally to the city po-
lice. The January grand jury recent
ly in session, found three indictments
against him for petit larceny and one
for grand larceny. In the latter, the
states attorney, Mr.. Flory, stated that
1t was with some difficulty that the
value of the goods above $35 could be
established and they would accept
a plea of guilty to petit larceny.
J. F. Moore represented the pris-
oner and made talk for him. He
admitted that Woods had been in the
Mansfield reformatory and Mr.. Flory
said he had been sent back there for
violation of his parole. Mr.. Moore
said that the prisoner had been in the
county Jail ~ days already; that dur.
ing that time his father had died and
his mother, now aged 61 years, need
ed the support Of her son. He could
make some promises fer the young
man, and if he was given a light SEN
tence would reform.
The court, in sentencing him, took
into account the fact that he had
been sent to Mansfield originally for
the Cole place, South
Second street. He gave Woods 80
days Jail sentence in all four of the
cases ard ordered him to pay the
costs of prosecution.
