decision. He said:
"That's terrible. I had hoped
his decision would be more
favorable. I'm all at sea now
and don't know just what I can
or will do. I hate to see that
boy die and I will do anything
humanity possible to save him."
Governor johnson was visibly
affected by a lengthy plea in
behalf of the condemned boy
made by an older brother, Her
bert Reppin, 25, of Newark, N. j.
Tears were said to have welled
in the governors eyes as he
listened to Herbert beg for mercy
and clemency; beg for the life
of the boy who never had .

Told Governor Story
Herbert Reppin, apparently shy
Of publicity, slipped into Governor
Johnson's office through o rear
door without the knowledge Of
newspaper men, who awaited his
arrival in the anteroom Of the
State executives offices. Not until
he had left the State House were
reporters aware that the inter-
view had taken place.
Herbert told Governor johnson
that Walter, himself, and three
other brothers and sisters had
been made orphans by the death
of both parents before Walter was
four years old.
Walter was adopted by q promi-
nent Virginia family, the head Of
which died shortly after the
child'S adoption. The boy, head
strong and of not agile men
tality, in the older brothers opirl-
ion, was spoiled by an indulgent
foster.mother.
Banished From Virginia
Walter became involved in Seri-
Gus trouble with Virginia authori-
ties in his early teens and was
baniShed from the State until he
became 18, according to Herbert.
He lived with Herbert for some
time in New Jersey, where he
