T. BO ST in Greensboro * Daily News Raleigh, Sept. 24.—Former Got* rnor Locke Craig eat in aa invalid's chair thle morning and In an hour and ten minuter of argument beg ged the court of Governor Iforrie on for mercy on Tom Harria, con victed slayer of F. W. Monnlah, of Bldfwnit, but tbe Governor with inverted thumb* dictated the death wait Ant of tbe Accused. To be perfectly literal Mr. Craig wae not in the comfortable chair of the sick and Governor Morrison did not give the etgn of the meevlleee who thronged the Roerren arena where man fought for their Irree. Mr. Craig la rtlH able to walk and ha occupied Joel an ordinary rocker in the Governor's office. But the for mer chief asecutlve eat end spoke his tender heart for a man who hae foam! mercy nowhere west of Ra leigh and it wasn't hart today. . The speech #f the former governor thle morning was quite as notable aa •a that of Ex-Judge Frank Carter yeeterday. Mr. Craig wee blowing up a minister’s character and therefore more spectacular. At times ha waa a torrent of Invective. Mr. Craig ee raeionally lot loose a burning sen tense; bat for the molt part he waa content to ask hit excellency what the court of demency la for U it ie | not to touch the human side of courts which the machinery of those *t tutiona often must miss ewtirty. What nun could any that insanity, the modsll) of the defense, would not have been believed and Preacher Maya net taken the last gasp from the dying victim and coined H into motivation, and the Am word of the wretched devil under death sentence to forge a chain of Are about his body? iTT. ways m;, Craig contended, there U no established motive. There ia mi invxj^eafcle homicide which fragments of testimony picked up bare and there might hare mtiMled a Jury called upon to red ace the fttIH of the accused. Bat it wu Mays who heat down and caught from a victim aafling into the other world, tho dying deeiaratdoc against "moonshiner*." It was tho asms Mr. Mayo who wrapped his living ami about the accused and made this doll, groae, rtepld murderer, and in the relation priest and eonfeesor. tore from him tho perfect proof of rationality. U waa hav, Dr. Mam who brought from the dead proof of premeditation and deliberation. It Wha Dr. Man who bore from Harris proof that Paul Harris would swear Harris from tho chair. U waa Dr. May* again who conveyed from the prisoner the announcement that he was not stirred by boost to commit the assassination; but rather that the prisoner chose perfect control of his nerve* then took a drink to colebrata the great event To nil this Governor Morrison en tered no demurer. Ha eonatermteo hie death warrant without a doobt of anything that Brother Mays, at the Farman university facially might my. But omitting it sH, the govern or does not see what avail It is to Harris who should have bean convic ted, his excellency thinks, without sny Mays at ail. The defen** lost Its heart when it mw the governor dissociating tho jury and. Dr. Maya. To tho defeeme there whs no motive without Mays evMomea, there waa no suggestion of rationality with Mays left out. There were all sorts of evidence for and wains* insanity he Bore and after the homicide. The jury could be lle** that the Jury would not have convicted of. murder in the first de gree without direct testimony and dolibarntion and premaditation. Such testimony Mays famished.
