McLeait yesterday took .( ’ final action in two capital eases, annouuc- jl ■ ing he would not interfere with the exe- j ■ cution of George Love, negro, of Hay- i wood county, who is to die by electroeu- 1 tion at 10:30 o’clock this morning, and j granting a commutation-to life imprison- \ ment for Alex Rodman, nOgro, of Meek- 1 lenhurg county. The governor issued ] lengthy statements In both cases. ii After this morning at 10:30 there will jj be only two inmates of death row.
