poses. The case was worked u-n by
Mr. A. N. Airred, a special federal

Tho girl, wiro Pitts is said to have
taken away from her homo, and her
father were both in the city yesterday
nnd testiiled at the preliminary. Thc
girl, lt scorns was taken away from
Commorco without ttho knowledge of
h?r father, and 'toa spent tho last
few months in Polzcr, S. C., working
as an oporatlve in ono of the Pelzor

Pitts Statement.
"I'll tell you tho whole business,"
said the prisoner. "Some months ago,
I decided to come from Commerce,
Ga., to Pelzor and look for work. Hie
girl who carno with mo later asked
me ot tha-; time to look around for a
position for her In one of tho mills. I
told her I would do lt, and that is
what I did. 1 came to Anderson and
then went to Pelzer, where 1 found
employment for mysolf and the girl.
When b went home, n:o told her fath
or that she was going to leave and ho
got mad about lt. They had been hav
ing somo sroub?e beforo I ever left1
Commerce tho iir^t time. I told the
girl ? had gotten her a Job, and she
uh'anked me for lt, saying that she
wanted to go U. South Carolina with
ray wife and mysolf when we loft. We
left Commerce soon after that and
She came with TIS. That ia where I
guess thtit Btory started. Tho girl
waa unable to pay her way to Pclv.or,
being unable to roach-cerne marmy,
she . i ind at that time, and asked me
for. railroad faro. I poid tho faro and
then she said she would pay mo tack
when wo got to Pelzer. As for my
Immorality, I don't seo how . Uv?t
could bo when my.wlfo acccmpauted
us. Tho. girl did not claim that any
thing immoral was between mo nnd
i ?er today - when tho oiFicora asked
her."-'
