They say Ruth was but a child; well, what do you call a boy of 19 or 15- One thing certain, they aren't men. I must admit that both murders were committed in a cold-blooded way, but when : we come to think it over, in Isom White this day and age, when 8o much unhappiness and sorrow is taking place all over the w ying is there no other way to unish but by hanging? . To my eae oF thinking, the man that pulls the rope that takes the breath of life from a person is WHAT? The judge and the jury that convicts them is WHAT? You can an- swer those questions to suit yourselves.
