Sleep After the Verdict.
I have foen my sou Roland asleep as a

asleep lu hbt cHl after tho verdict con
demning blm lo death hud been pronounced.
Who Is belter able than I, bis father, to
Judge whether that tdeon was tho natural
ideep of llinorenc?'.' And 1 have heard ids
'words, on awnll'enlng at the c.tll of bis
father, an by reveille from that sleep after
the verdict, "Mow Is Ulancbe? How Is
mother"", and before Hint sad awakening
during all tho days of confinement, day by

has been always that first loving cry from
his lips for "llluncbe and mother." Can
lie bo guilty of cowardly poisoning? Is It
possible'' Can It be? No! 1 know that he
Is innocent as I know that I am alive.
Although no lawyer, I have always be-
lleved that the American bar Is the purest
In the world and 1 tlll believe aud honor
and respect the bar us such. With thin be

say that they should have been at Ills side

unequivocally and must bo nnswered In
