CAPTaFnE. BERKELEY
IS DANGEROUSLY ILL
MuiTun G. \V. Smith, u seventeen-
yeur-ohl Atlanta boy, was in the gov
eminent prison at Fort Riley, Kan., six
months before his father, J. \V. Smith,
a painter, living on Homer atreet, At
lanta, knew aught of his son’s where-
about*.
The tad had been away from home
nearly half a year before his father
located him, and then purely by lucky
chance. Now he Is securing signers to
petition addressed to President
RoosevelL asking him to pardon the
boy.
.Ills son, Marlon, a position In this city,
und for some time had no other thought
than (tint the boy was at his work.
In trying to communicate with him,
however, he discovered that Marlon
had left Atlanta.
Then Ids search for the boy began.
The local recruiting offleer for the
regular army told him that Marlon
had been examined here, but was re
jected. Then one day some young
fPffnilH of the boy told the rather that
Marlon was a member of the Seventh
Batteiy, UnBed States regulars.
Further Inquiry developed the fact
that the boy, growing homesick, had
deserted. While making his way home
he was apprehended, tried hy a military
court and sentenced to two years in the
army prison at Fort Riley.
Ills father has secured a large num
ber of signers to tho apiieal to tint
president for pardon, Including llm
county officials, state house offlcifi t
und prominent citizens. It Is and, i -
stood that Governor Terrel! will sign
the paper when he returns to the city.
It Is said that the boy Is In very laid
health, anil that conllnement will kIK
him If the full sentence Is Imposed. He
has served about one year already.
