PATRICK SEEKS
FREEDOM AFTER
YEARS IN jail.
All Members Of Jury And The
Judge Who Tried Columbus
Man Are Dead

John T. Patrick, after % years
behind the bars, following a life SEN
tence for murder, in Columbus, IS
actually facing the prospect of wa
ing forth a free man.
Friday, before the prison com
mission, Attorney Dan Chapel, of
Americus, will make, what is belicv-
ed now, will be a successful effort,
to free him from prison. Several
previous attempts have met with no
success.
Many unusual and interesting fea-
lures surround this case, for since
the iron door first changed behind
the prisoner, a former well known
foreman in a cotton mill at Colum-
bus, all of his relatives have died
with the exception of his sister; the
judge who sat on his case is now
dead and the solicitor general, Price
aG;lbert, is now associate justice
of the Supreme court of Georgia.
All twelve of the jurors who >ied
him are dead.
Patrick was foreman of cotton
mill and one night, in what is claimed
was self defense, he shot one OF the
employees Of the mill. His unusual
bearing, refinement and bearinhg
ability mas attracted to him a host of
friends who are anxious to see him
released and he has been assures :;
lucrative position by the mead of a
large manufacturing concern in At
lanta, once he is free.

COP OLD GUARD

BRANDON VICTOR
Organization Candidates Backed
By Harding In Buckeye State
Win

The Republican Old Guard retain
cd it's stronghold in OHIO. the Dcmo-
Gratis Of the Buckeye state gave SUB
stantial pluralities to organization
candidates. Judge w. W. Brandon
is apparently the Democratic noml-
nee for governor in Alabama. Gov

Democrats as a result Of yesterday s
primaries in thre states.
Incomplete rcturnslform Ohio in
dicated Carmi Thompson, backed by
President Harding and the Anti-Sa-
loon League forces, was nominated
by wide margin.
Thompson's nearest opponent in
the nine-cornered race was C. Ho-
Nor Durand, of Coshocton, the beer
and light wine candidate. Congress-
man Charles L. Knight, of Akron, who
campaigned as a Roosevelt progress
i've, was running third and Secretary
Of States Harvey C. Smith, was fourth
on these returns.
The vote from the 938 precincts
was: Thompson, 1928; Durand, T.
545; Knight, 6,453; Harvey c.
Smith, 4,798; Arthur H. Day, soldier
candidate, 1850; Harry Clay Smith,

REEVES DENIES
LIABILITY IN
WEBSTER CASE
Says School Money. Alleged Io
Have Been Unaccounted For,
Properly Handled

Following the statement Of the
sheriff of Webster county that all
execution had been issued and would
be served on II. Is. Reeves, tax col
lector, in the matter Of a dispute
over the return of taxes amounting
to $500, Mr.. Reeves issued state
ment, sustaining his end OF the con-
troversy:
Reeves, who is prominent in Pres
ton, has been tax collector of Web
ster county for six years. he said
that he settled last with the coun-
tv on the first Tuesday in June, at
which time there was difference OIL
accounts of approximately 1900 due
TO the failure of collecting Officers to
properly figure interest, ETC., but
that this was merely matter OF
bookkeeping that could be easily
Strengthened out. There have been
numerous partial payments of taxes
throughout the county. according to
Reeves, those having been accepted
because of the scarcity of money,
and in accordance with custom as
we'll. Included in past due and un-
collected taxes, Reeves says, are
amounts due during both 1920 and
1921, which has caused some strin-
gency in the various county depart
ments.
The school money alleged to be
unaccounted for, has all been prop
erly handled, Reeves asserts, and II
the various trustees have been un-
able to secure funds derived from
special local tax levies, it is because
these have either not yet been col
lected or are yet in the hands o.
Ibailiffs and other officers having
fl fas issues by the tax collector anc
collected by them, but not turnec
over to the collector. The school au.
thorities, it appears, are this yeal
demanding interests in amounts duc
them from December, 1921, where
as in former years all interests col
lected by the collector has been re.
mitted to the state and county au
thorities, and this demand, it is al
legged, had much to do with the is
suance of an execution against tht
collector by the county authorities
The annual county audit, Reeves SAID
Tuesday, is always completed no
later than September, and when this
audit discloses just what amounts
due the several funds, he is prepared
to pay over the cash.
