MISS BURNS WEDS MR.
SAYE AT HOME CEREMONY
Atlanta Journal.
The Orud Hill’s Presbyterian
church was the scene of a pretty
and impressive wedding on Satur
. day, March 26, when Miss Lelia
Mae Burns and Mr. James Fur
man Saye were united in marriage
by Rev. Wade H. Boggs. Promptly
at two-thirty o’clock Lohengrin’s
bridal march, played by Mrs. R.
L. Wilmot, announced the bride,
who entered with her sister, Mrs. J.
Guy Smith, matron of honor. The
bride was met at the altar by Mr.
Saye and his brother, Mr. Sam W.
Saye, wHb acted as best man.
During the ceremony the “Sweetest
Story Ever Told” was played soft
’ ly. Mendelssohn’s wedding march
, was played while the bridal party
left the church.
Mrs. Saye is the lovely daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles David
Burns, of Pittsboro, N. C., Mrs.
Saye lived in Washington, D. C.,
before coming to Atlanta, where
she had made her home with her
brother and sister, Mr. and Mrs.
J. Guy Smith. She has made many
friends here.
Mr. Saye is well known in Atlan
ta. He attended Georgia Tech and
was a member of the Beta Thea Pi
fraternity. He is employed in the
engineering department of South
ern Bell Telephone and Telegraph
company.
The bridal couple left immediate
ly for a trip to Florida, and will be'
at home to their friends after
April 1.
ABOUT THE FISH LAW.
It develops that the fellow who
uses the old-time hook and line on
a reed or wood pole does not have
to have license to fish. Nor is
there any license required for net,
sein, or trap fishing. So go to it,
boys. The law is for the protection
of game fish and the fellow with
rod and reel is the one who must
pay the license fee. Such fellows
can get license from the clerk of
court.

cussed the feasibility of the eight
months school term. The game
was between Bynum and Carrboro
and Bynum won.
I
SMITH SAYS
(Continued from page 1)
,
understand how anything that I
was taught to believe as a Catholic
could possibly be in conflict with
what is good citizenship. The es
sence of my faith is built upon the
commandments of God. There
can be no conflict between them.
“Instead of quarrelling among
ourselves over dogmatic principles,
it would be infinitely better if we
joined together in inculcating these
commandments in the hearts and
minds of the youth of the country
as the surest and best road to hap
piness on this earth and to peace in
the world to come. This is the com
mon ideal of all religions. What
we need is more religion for our
young people, not less; and the way
to get more religion is to stop bic
kering among our sects, which can
only have for its effect the creation
of doubt in the minds of our youth
as to whether or not it is necessary
to pay attention to religion at all.
“Then I know your imputations
are false when I recall the long list
of other public servants of my faith
who have loyally served the state.
You as a lawyer will probably
agree that the bffice of the chief
justice of the United States is sec
ond not'even to that, of the Presi
dent in its influence on the national
[ development and policy. * * *
During one fourth of its history it
has been presided over by two
Catholics, Roger Brooke Taney and
Echvard Douglas White. No one
; has suggested that the official con
, duct of either of these men was as
. fected by any unwarranted relig
i ious influence or that religion play
i ed with them any part other than
. it should play in tHe life of every
[ God-fearing man.”
• Then Governor Smith takes up!
, each question and answers it in a
J manner at least satisfactory
(himself. For instance,
“You refer to the apostolic letter
j of Pope Leo XIII as ‘declaring to
the world that the orders of the
church of England were void, her
priests not priests’ and so forth.
.You say that this was ‘strange
fruit’ of the toleration of England
to the Catholic. You imply that the
Pope gratuitously issued an affront
to the Anglician church. In fact,
this apostolic letter was an answer
to a request made at the instance
of the priests of the Anglican
church for recognition by the Ro
man Catholic church of the validity
of their priestly orders. * * * It
(the, apostolic letter) was not di
rected against England or the citi
zens of that empire.”
LONG SENTENCES
(Continued from page 1)
conveyance to the penitentiary. *
As it was the Chatham county
officers who chased the prisoners
down after their gun battle with
Sheriff Turner and Lee and Chat
ham deputies on January 20th, it
was fitting that the Chatham offi
cers should be in at the finish.
They were there and were given
the dubious privilige of forming a
part of the escort to Raleigh. These
were Sheriff Blair and Deputies
Nooe, Webster, and John Perry,
who had gone down professedly to
hear the Judge’s charge and were
thus called upon to finish the task
which they and other Chatham
deputies had so well begun when
they chased the men into Wake,
Franklin, and Durham counties and
were present at the arrest of each
of the four.
The determination of the case
rested peculiarly upon the judge’s
charge. Only one man shot Turner
and they were being tried for that
one offense alone. If there was
no conspiracy to kill and no coope
ration in an unlawful act being
committed when some one shot
Turner, then only the man who shot
Turner was guilty of his murder.
If there was a conspiracy to kill,
all conspiring were equally guilty
ot the murder and it was first-de
gree murder. If there was no con
spiracy to kill, and yet the four
or any two of the defendants were
cooperating in an unlawful act
when some one shot Turner as a
'bf their being engaged
in this unlawful act, then all were
involved in the slaying of the man,
the degree of the crime being de
termined by the circumstances. It
was a most scholarly and com
prehensive charge,‘the most diffi
cult to follow in all its phases of
all the writer ever heard, and it
is doubtful if many of the jury
were able to digest an hour’s lec
ture on the law of conspiracy and
the distinctions in the degree" of
murder. Anyway His Honor seem
ed rather inclined to resent the
verdict rendered and candidly
stated that the evidence justified a
first-degree verdict for all four
of the men, since he was confi
dent that it was a downright con
spiracy, Nor did he distribute any
boquets to the jury, who for ten
days had patiently heard reitera
tion after reiteration of the details
of the case and who, after all, ren
dered a verdict that permitted his
honor to impose sentences that
should be a warning to all others
disposed to be a law unto them
selves. Thirty years brings Davis
past the three-score and ten; thirty
years of imprisonment will see Mc-
Aveniie released at well above fif
ty. The other two should be thor
oughly convinced when their terms
expire that crime does not pay, and
be willing to live law abiding lives,
thence onward.
But the 95 years of toil imposed
upon the quartet, if' .productive,
would not much remun
erate the county of Lee for the
ten thousand dollars expense of the
trial. It was a luxury the county
cannot afford again to have. The
Record is informed that bonds will
have to be issued to meet the ex
pense account.
It was an able array of attorneys
that prosecuted and defended the
four men. The writer heard only
the speech of Solicitor Williams.lt
was able and comprehensive. But
Judge Sinclair attributed the len
iency of the jury to the able coun
sel defending the prisoners. He
and all the defense attorneys ex
pressed the opinion that the trial
was exceeringly fair.
On the grounds were the moth
er and brother of McAvenue, who
had driven from Akron, Ohio, to be
present at the trial. Mrs. Robbins,
too, had come down from the little
Franklin county farm to see the
outcome of her trial, a fine-
Jooking youth of only 21 years, and
the one for whom most sympathy,
