would not, approve the recommenda
tion or" the Prison Commission that
the sentence of William Mitchell, a
prominent citizen of I'homasville,
Ga., convicted of attempted assault
Miss Lucille Linton, a high \y- re
spected woman and a relative of his

Singleton,-- or Thomas county, was
notified by telegraph to take Mltchel\
into custody.
? Xhrt rtnvpmor'a fleclslon ends one
?of ? Hi* ? moat remarkable cases _ln_
Georgia's legal history. - Mitchell's
friends have made every effort to
save him from the disgrace of con
vict stripes, and the ezbcgtive.?ullng
came as a great surprise to them. In
denying clemency, Governor Brown
said: %
"Should the ^clemency asked for in
the present case betotended, there
grave danger that it would bear
fruits of sorrow in every section of
our State. It would set an example
pernicious beyond ' compare, an ex
a'mple embodying a daily menace to
'Georgia's womanhood- It would say
-that we have, one law for the rich,
another fpr the poor; one law for the
highly educated, another for those,
too poor to enjoy the privileges and
immunities consequent upon, educa
tion; one law for the classes, another
for tlio liiaiWtfs."" '
