Floyd and his sun Claude, each undt r
sentence of death, are In the same

Allen and Sldna Kdwards. Claude had
very little to say. Ho n,-\ld he thought I
everybod> connected with the trial had ;
done what they thought was right, j
hut the juries were mistaken. Neither]
of the two men appeared to be un?
usually nervous or excited. Hoth
talked calmly as If no cloud of any
kind hovered over them.

tal of Victor Allen " vas asked of
Floyd.
'I thlnk.lt was J-st as It should
be" he said.
"Don't ?you >thlnk that If you had
been less excited and nad used some
effort to control yourself, you could
have saved other nun from all this j
trouble?"
? Yea. possibly I could have," he said,
"but I was too excited and mad to I
think about anybody else, and 1 think '
the boys got excited because I did, and
they could never have been controlled I
then."
"Are you confident that you can se- |
cure a new trial?"
"Yes, we hope'so. Judge Hairston
Was here this morning ami told us he
believed he could do so.'!
When Informed of the arrcet of his

little to say. Aiked whether he knew

further than this none of the pris?

of the man who is regarded as the

the biggest reward was plated.
"Have you had e. spiritual adviser
with you since you have been In lail

"One minister," said Floyd, "and

"Would you like to have a minister

IN MEMORIAM
DILLARD --In ?id hut loving remem?
brance of our HAZEL, who fell
asleep March 18, 1912.
My heart Is near to break
For the voice 1 ennno; hear.
For the clinging arms around itiT
nr ck,
And the footsteps drawing near
Tis a weary world at Its heat.
This world that she will not know ?
Would 1 awaken her out of such per
. feet rest
For Its sorrows. Its griefs-und lu
woes?
The apparent perl.hlng of tho
beautiful hopes of earth in h'it the,
Inverted r?n?'tion of turn transla?
tion to he?veh;
MOTHER.
HOBKON.
Two months have slowly passed
awa y.
Months: Of sorrow, tears and sl?'hs.
When an angel cam.- and beckoned
hint fom us.
Severing th,; tenderest of tender
ties.
Hopes are crushed and h'-.rts are
bleeding;
Drear the fireside now. ,.nd lone.
For the best loved and the dearest
Far away from us hath flown.
If time or change, or ought he'.ow
Could that lost form restore,
Could bring our treasure bark to us
Our sorrow would be no more
BY MOTHER ANi> SISTERS.
