tell the whole truth. Il has been
clear for weeks that some persons
in New Brunswick could help the
Prosecutor if they were not afraid
of the publicity of their own repu-
tations.
The local newspaper last night
contained two suggestions that some
one ought TO come forward and
confess. The first is in the form
OF a short editorial reading:
1T is in the power of some one
to make a clean breast and confess
sion in the Hall-Mills murder case.
Confession would be good for some
souls and would lift a burden from
a very tired public"
The second suggestion along the
same line is in the form of letter
60 the editor and reads:
1T has ben my desire ever since
I read OF the Hall-Mills murder TO
plead with those who are guilty and
those who know facts in the case
not to risk their souls salvation by
Tying or taking bribes
God says in the book Of Pro
verbs, 2s:13 He that covereth his
sins shall hot prosper. but who so
confesseth and forsaketh them shall
have mercy in John. /: 3, II we
confess ours sins, He is faithful and
just to forgive Us our sins and TO
cleanse us from all unrighteousness;'
in Exodus, %: s. And thou shalt
take no gift. for the gift blindeth
.ta r,fga .rd rarvavfath che xuordo
of the righteous;' in Matthew, 16; 26.
What does a man profit If he shall
gain the whole world and lose his
own soul7'
IF they would only make a con-
fession both 10 God and man and
get the peace and joy that this
world cannot givei What are our
lives worth If we are not right with |
God and MANI"
This letter is signed "One Who |
Believes in Gods Word" and is only |
a sample of the many letters that |
appear daily in the local sheet theI
interest in the case apparently be-
Ing as great as ever.
Henry Carpenter. cousin OF Mrs.
Hall, who was taken to the Middle
sex Hospital more than a week ago
and was operated on for appeDdi-
citis. will leave the hospital for his
home today or Sunday. He has
not been asked TO present himself
before the Grand Jury in Somerville,
and the officials here would not
state whether he would be subpoe-

an operation had been performed.
His friends here said tonight that

few days.
The authorities have not asked
friend. J. X. Rice, Jr.'
