Case Of Leunder Price
Appealed; Stays
Sentence

Because the case of Leander
Price who was sentenced to
be hanged today between
sunrise and sunset" has been
appealed, carrying out of the
sentence was automatically
stayed. It is understood that
Attorney Croxton Williams
might go to Philadelphia,
while Attorney Christian has
forwarded briefs.
According to law the SEN
tence would not be carried out
until it has been reviewed by
the Appellate Court. If the
higher Court affirms the deci-
sion appeal may be made to
the Governor.
1t was explained, however,
that the sentencing Judge was
required by law to set a date
and time, thus today's date
was set.
