10000 prisoners, mostly violators of the
prohibition laws which have been re-

Most of the prisoners who would be
affected are those unable to pay fines
for offenses against the dry laws. The
amnesty would not include smugglers
and bootleggers serving long terms. 1t
was expected Parliament would approve
the bill, II for no other reason than TO
save the expense of supporting great
numbers of prisoners.

'BO-CAT' NEWEST !
SONG OF SWAMPS
Georgia Epic Strange Con-
trast to Mississippi Valley 2
SpirituaIs.

BY the Associated Press.
SAVANNAH, Ga, September S.-Swamp
darkies' love for ballads has found ex-
preston In a new chant-"The Song Of
Bo-Cat."
II Is an epic even in this land where
colored people have been singing origi-
nal lyrics ever since their forefathers
were brought to the marsh country
through the bloody middle passage by
slave traders and pirates.
Music Of the low coast colored people
differs from any other in the world
and Is strange contrast to the songs
OF the Mississippi Valley colored people,
whose spirituals are world famous
Marsh folk chant their lyrics In q tom
tom rhythm which suggests frenzied
dancing at midnight, fiickering jungle
fires and savage ecstasy.
"Bo-Cat" Is Nickname.
The new song is the story Of Linn
brick de Lanzy. who faces trial on q
charge of killing his wife, Catherine,
and throwing her body in the waters
Of He'll Gate. De LanZy's nickname Is
"Bo-Cat." The names origin is not
known. The simple words of the ballad
tell Of Catherine death. One verse goes:
Catherine holler na-wan-na; Bo-Cat
make ner na-nan-na-
Hits a shame how Bo-Cat done his
wife,
Another verse:
When Bo-Cat went home he met his
daughter all alone
"She say Bo-Cat, Bo-Cat, where my
mamas at
Hits a shame how Bo-Cat done his
wife"
The marsh folk chant in q sharp
whine and their dialect Is extremely
hard to understand. Authors Of their
lyrics seldom are known. One will start
whining q melody and soon his tune
will catch the ear of another, who will
weave the melody around some event in
the community.
Different From Valley.
Customs and songs of the marsh folk
are wholly different from their cousins
in the Mississippi Valley or even from
the Gullah folk Of South Carolina
A valley darkey would not give
friend the nickname Of "Bo-Cat." He
might call him "slew-foot" or big
haid," but not "Bo-Cat." Neither
would woman be named Catherine.
