am not blaming Morse for getting out The only
point make in connection with his case is that the
prison rule, is poor mans institution, and that
when in rare exceptions and under extraordinary cir
cumstances rich man is sent there, his treatment is
entirely different from that accorded the common herd
Furthermore, he does not stay there, for prison was
never meant to hold man who has the money to buy
his way out.
There is no doubt in my mind that the release of
Morse was procured upon the basis Of randulsnt cer
tcates issued by examining physicians for the pur-
pose OF showing that he at the point of death.
The Morse story it told me by prison officials
and by prisoners who served time with him, briefly

After all that has been saidlpbout

DIFFICULT TO DENY.
AFTER spending two months In
a cell during the blazing hot
summer Of 1919, and starved rather,
than nourished by the food, was
reduced to almost a skeleton. My
normal weight Is 1856 poutds, but
at the time Of my transfer to the
hospital I weighed lesss than 100.
Reports as TO my being in a critical
condition reached the outside
world, and the warden received
frequent inquiries both from the
press and my friends concerning
me.
In New York I was even reported
dead. The warden was besieged
with inquiries by telephone and
otherwise. Not contented with his
assurance that I was alive, the
press representatives came to the
prison and would not be satisfied
until the warden sent for me to ap-
pear before them and contradict
the report OF my demise. But II
must be confessed In candor. that
In all but the spirit there was
scarcely enough left OF mo to make
q successful denial. 81

PROMISED WEALTH.
MORSE had promised he would
make the men rich" who got
him out of prison. And so. almost
Immediately after he had entered
the prison to begin his twelve
years sentence, efforts were In
itiated to get him free.
An Atlanta lawyer, Tom Fielder
by name. was engaged to handle
the local end. Fielder, it' was told
me, looked over the situation and
determined to enlist the services Of
Harry M. Daugherty. now Attor.
ney General, who, because he had
been active In support of william
Howard Taft, then President, Eel
der believed would have great in
fluence with the pardoning power.
At once things began to move.
First. the assistant surgeon gen.
eral of the United States army
made a special trip, under orders.
to visit Morse at the prison, ex-
anime him, and report on his con-
dition. .f..
This s'visit was followed by
another from the surgeon general
himself for the same purpose, an
extraordinary proceeding, It must
be confessed, from the standpoint
OF d mere convict. II such consid-

LAWYER COMPLAINS.
TT was soon found by the phy-N
sician that this star inmate, for
reasons Of very particular and
private nature, required most par.
ticular consideration.
So the removal of the ailing and
failing inmate was ordered by the
examining physicians from the
penitentiary TO Fort Mcpherson.
where his case could be treated
with greater privacy and attract
less attention. Here he was placed
