tric chair at the state penitentiary
was all in readiness for melting JUS
tice to self confessed and a con-
Gemned murderer, c. o. Fox, but he
did not die today, the date set by the
court for his execution and for the
execution of Jesse Gappins and S. j.

der of William Brazell, Columbia taxi
driver. The three have appealed and
their executions were automatically
stayed Not until yesterday afternoon
was the fate of Fox finally determin-
ed. Fox was to have died today, but
an appeal postponed his execution at
least until next February, when the
next term of court for Lexington sits,
at which time the three men, unless
their appeals are perfected, will be
re-sentenced.
Counsel for Fox went before Jus
tice Cothran of the supreme court
yesterday afternoon and petitioned
on writ of habeas corpus to be allow
cd TO appeal. The justice dismissed
the petition, whereupon Fox gave no
tice OF appeal to the full court. This
automatically stayed the execution.
