South Carolina Slayer Freed
Governor Blease Returns to
Woman in Case.
bv
COLUMBIA, B. C.. April 30. Gov
ernor Blease has added to his long
ilrtt of pardons by freeing Ed Green j
ami John L. Paige, who, eighteen j
years ago, killed Ben Carson, a Spar- !
lanburg farmer with whose* wife
Green was in love.
Green and Paige were sent to prison ,
for life. Mrs, Carson knew of the!
plot to kill her husband. She was!
pardoned by Governor Ansel.
Green end Paige have gone back
to the Carson farm. Tt is said that !
Green and Mrs. Carson will marry
soon and that Paige will live with
them.
soloists from among the members
If one of tiie young men wants o
new position h« can usually secur.*
it by going t,o the employment bu
reau established recently. On week
days the young men Van go to the
two athletic fields for baseball u
tennis, and evey Thursday night,
there is a "social" smoker where the
young men get acquainted.
The class started on its boom when
the membership campaign was in
augurated between the Christian and
Baptist churches. Sunday before last
th» attendance was 310. Tho last
Sunday it jumped to 400, and to-day
every member of the class is working
to swell it to 60o by next Sunday.
It won’t stop there, however, say
those who are at the head of the
class.
Th© now members are being re
cruited from those who are not mem
bers of any Sunday school, or church,
and have been somewhat lax in their
devotionals—and there are so many
of these, said Mr. Day, the instructor,
that it was doubtful whether any
member had been taken from other
denominations.
