would be mad*. Opinion was evenly
divided upon the theory that the
rests probably would uot occur until
after the open hearing had been
eluded. The state wants to question
some of them as witnesses, which
privilege would be denied in event
they were under charges and diiThot
care to testify, it was argued.
While a deputy sheriff armed with
carefullly prepared requisition
route to Baltimore to claim Dr. B. M.
McKoin for the state of Louisians on
a charge of murder in connection
with the robed and masked activities
of last August, bis friends in this sec
tion of the state ware putting their
heads together to raise a suitable
fund for his defense. A fund of TlO,-
000 was said by bia friends to be the
objective.
The plea of the former mayor at
Baltimore yesterday that he would
rather die forty times than to be tak-
back to Morehouse struck a re
sponsive chord among many. Lata
yesterday his friends here and in New
Orleans were reported considering
steps to be taken to prortde him with
a heavy escort after he reaches Louis-
iana in the event he is returned.
Sheriff Carpenter of Morehousa Is
sued a statement yesterday declan
ing he knew there would be some ar-

He said that while forty-five citizens
might be involved in the kidnaping
plot he did not believe this number
was actually participants as his infor
mation was there were only eighteen
or twenty.
In Bastrop, the parish seat, and the
nearby village of Mer Rouge, for sev
eral weeks the centers of activity in

the situation was quiet with no de

CHIEF JUSTICE FISH
TAKES FINAL FAREWELL
Atlanta, Dec. 30—In the Georgia Su
preme Court room this forenoon,
Chief Jdstlce William H. Fish took of
ficial farewell of the justices and
court attaches and was presented by
them with some handsome silver
ing a ’ period of verfbal expressions
such as seldom have been beard in
the hall of that tribunal.
In behalf of the court attaches and
stenographers the presentation was
made by Col. Z. D. Harrison, clerk of
the court, and for the associate jus
tices the presentation was made by
Mr. Justice Beck. The fact
brought out that Judge Pish probably
bolds the record for Judicial service,
not only In this state, but probably Ic
the nation. He has served 26 years on
the state Supreme Court bench, fol
lowing a service of some six years on
the Superior Court bench. More than
twenty years of the latter service
been as chief Justice of the state.
Justice Beck in commenting on
that service said Judge Fish has
“made doubtful lawyers go straight
and helped weak ones to become
ter lawyers.” a service which Judge
Fish will continue to perform for the
state as dean of the Mercer Law
School, by training young met
they should be trained to become the
proper kind of members of the Geor
gia bar. He said, while he was not
in possession of actual statistics, it
is his belief that Judge Fish has prob-
ably written more opinions and pass-
id on more cases than any Jurist not
inly In American, but in American or
English courts and, as chief Justice,
a record which probably is ap
proached only by the record of Mr.
Chief Justice Marshall.
Judge Fish announced that he ex
pects to go to Macon Monday morning
and take up his new work at the law
school cf Mercer University at once
iud took occasion to say he felt his
selection for that chair a compliment
at a member of another faith to
with them In the training of the
young mind.
