Several weeks will likely elapse be fore the supreme cMurt renders a decis ion, and in the meantime a stay of sen tence "ill have to be secured. Lee is sentenced to hang on July 21. but that date will have passed before the ap peal is acted on. In the event the supreme court should deny the prisoner another heal ing, he will have to be resentenced by Judge Candler.
