Condemned Man May
be Visited by Mother
of DR.. Chas. Chapman.
Edmund Bigham, Convicted ef
Family Killing in South Carolina
Suspected Of Being Murderer of
Sumter County Man.

Americas, Ca, March 30.--Mrs.
J. P. Chapman, aged mother Of DR..
Charles x. Chapman, may visit
Edmund d. Bigham, convicted
murderer in his cell at South Caro-
lima, and personally appeal to him
to tell all he knows concerning the
murder of Walter Wade in this
August II, 1917, as result Of
Bigham's failure to reply to appeal
ing letters already sent him by Miss
Emma Chapman, q sister OF DR..
Charles Chapman.
Bigham formerly lived in the
Wade home at Leslie near here, and
was the last person seen with Wade
prior to his disappearance in Ame-
ricus shortly before his body was
taken out Of Flint river. Wade had
u quantity of money with him.
which fact was known to Brigham;
and friends OF DR.. Chapman believe
Bigham killed Wade with robbery
as motive. Bigham's convection
Of numbering five relatives, includ-
ing his mother, in South Caroline
has created a profound impression
here, where already much doubt
exists concerning the guilt Of, DR..
Chapman and Warren l Johnson.
who are now serving life sentences
at Milledgeville for Wade's murder.

We loved her yes we loved Ter,
But Jesus loves her more,
And lie has shortly called her,
To yonder shining shore,
In the grave yard softly sleeping,
Where the flow ers gently waving,
Lies our darling friend,
In her silent lonely grave.
Dear sweet friend we loved you,
But Jesus loved YOU best,
We. know you are sale in the arms
of Jesus,
In that sweet land Of rest.
You shall never be forgotten,
Never from our memory fade,
Loving hearts will always linger,
Around the grave where you
are laid.
Peaceful be your sleep dear friend,
1t is sweet TO breathe your name,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
Thou art gone our precious friend,
Never more we'll see your face,
But we'll meet you over yonder,
In that happy resting place.
A Friend.
