Governor Edwards having refused to
consider the question of atreprieve.
The families of the prisoners spent
about ar hour with them yesterday
afternoon. the State Prison regula-
tons prohibiting even their nearest
relatives from seeing them today.
No one but the prison c~haplains were
permitted in the death house when
the affecting farewells were said.
Both Shuck and James bore the
narrowing ordeal very well until the
relatives prepared to leave the death
cells and there came to the men the
full force of the knowledge that they
would never see them again. Then
both men broke down and wept.
But this soon passed and they were
able more calmly to receive the final
goodbye kisses and hand clasps.
