THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION. ATLANTA. GA.. TUESDAY NOVEMBER 4 1884. TWELVE PAGES. CATO STILL LIVES. The Governor Decides to Give the Old Man Every Chance for Die Life???Fourteen hay* Granted???llis Friend*. When the sun burst through the clouds ^Thursday morning and crept through the window0,of the massive brick jail at Decatur, It fell upon the form* of an old negro who stood in the shadow of death. Up and down, up and down, ho paced hia narrow cage. The cbicel of time had cut furrovfs in his rugged face, ond^ixty*thrce. years ,bad placed their imprint on his head. A fall beard, a broad, open face, kindly eyes in which the tears ever and anon gathered, told the story. He was negro of the olden time???a race fast fading from the face of the earth, caaionally the old man groaned. Through hit grated window he could see a little enclosure adjoining the jail. It waa probably twenty- five feet square and the close fence of new, un painted planka was twenty-four feet high, higher than the jail. Inside the enclosure and plain before his eyes was a platform six feet above the ground. To ono aide ot it two heavy, upright posts stood, thirteeu feet high From the cross beam dangled a new hempan rope at the bottom of which hung a heavy sack of sand. On a level with the platform and immediately under the beam were two trapdoors. To one aide lay a knee joint trig- f er, waiting for the fatal pull when it would url into eternity Henry Cato, the condemned murderer of Jack Dukes. TI1E OLD MAI ???Boss,??? said the old man, ???I lived for sixty- two years without ever getting m jail, but here 1 am at last, and out there you see how l will end; I never thought that Cato would go this way," and the old man walked to the window and looked out at the instrument of death???, built with the greatest care and precision, a$ though the builder intended that there should be no bungling work. ???But,??? no added, ???my whito friends havo done all they could for roe. Tho governor re- fuseeme,end I must go. Well* lain ready. Boss,, my wife is fifty years old and I leave a little grandchild. 1 didn't intend to kill that man.' ???Has your wife been to sec you?" ???Yes; she has just left here and she will be ck this evening won't be here tc stand to see me hung." ???Cato," said the reporter, touched by the gloomy lace of tho old man, ???tell mo some- She could not gloomy lace of tho old toing about your life." Bone district, Pigeon creek. My mother be longed to Mr. Archie Baker, and before I was a month old, she was sold to Ludwick Rollins. H?? died and left me to his son, Green Rollins, and I lived with him until I was freed. I was raised at Chalybeate Springs hotel until I was eighteen years old. I went to the war with my young muster, years and a half." , The old man then recited his experience in the past helium days, and told how, fourtein years ago, he purchased a little home near De catur???three acres???on which he* has since lived, raising strawberries, fruits and vegeta bles for market, and occasionally turning an honest dime or two working the garde* doing odd jobs for tho people of Docatur. THE FATAL FALLING OCT. Cato's farm was small. With him land was at a premium, and when a neighbor began to cut trees ou wbat he believed to be his domain he raised an objection. But that did uot stop the supposed trespass, and a^ad grew up. Cato and his neighbor were at outs. Thou Cato and his neighbor's hired man got at outs, and one day Cato and tho hired mau quarrel ed. Cato had bad a surveyor twico to ruu his line, ond new???8tobs" were set out. But the neighbor and Cato still warn? 1 over tho lino. The hired man said Cato h*d moved tho atoLa. Cato said the hired man was a liar. One night soon after, while goiug home, Cato and the hired man, Juek Dukes, fell in to gcthcr. They slopped at a negro- house c milo or so from Decatur. A fight occurred, and in less than no time Duk-s had six or seven cuts in his body. .Dukes died four days after. The wit nesses were enemies of the old man, and when he came to trial not a word was said in his be half by a witness. They swore that ho was the aggressor and that the killing was un necessary and wanton. Cato???s counsel decided that the prisoner had better not make a state- mint, as he wunted the conclusion in tho ar gument. Solicitor General Hill made ono of the most powerful speeches of his life, ami too result was a verdict without a recommenda tion, and Cato was sentenced to death. The case was carried to tho supremo court, the judgment sustaiued, aud Cat) was iu the hands of the governor. The governor wa pe titioned some weeks ago, and a few days ag reluvrd a commutatiou. Tho sheriif set about preparing for the^ execution, aud yesterday found everything reody lor tho hanging. THE IVUITK 1'EOPLiC onJEcr. Tho people of DeKalb county were greatly surprised at tho refusal of tho governor to commute tho sentence of Cato, although tho chief executive hsd no alternative under th j evidence before him. It was all onu-sided aud showed the killing to have been a bud murder. As soon as the people saw that Cato was really to be bung they began proceedings to savo hts life if possible. Thursday a large delegation csrr.o up to sec the governor. Among th^so who canto were Hon. John B. Steward, the or dinary; Mr. J. R. Russell, clerk of the supe rior court; Mr. M. R. Ragsdale, Mr. G. A. Ramspeck, Mr. 0. Wiuninghaui, Dr. J. II. Goss, Dr. Joe Green, Captain Hunter, Mr. John Baxter, Mr. J. P. Crockett, and Mr. G. L. Benton. All these geutlemen are men of prominence and influence aud were actuated solely by what they considered a duty. They are from all parts of the county, and state that they represent a universal sen timent of the people of the county agiiust the hanging. They state that the people of DjKalb county ft el that tho old negro should not be hanged, and that if ho is executed the people of the county will feel that the law ha* been unnecessarily harsh. Cato has had such a good character in tho past aud has be-jufso indus trious and such a good citizen that they feel that some consideration is due him. They say he bad not had a fair showing ond they wuut a respite until they can mako that fact plain to the governor. TILEGBAPniXO THE GOVERNOR. The delegations of citizens called at the exec utive office about noon and found that the gov ernor was at Macon. They then asked Msjor Warren to telegraph the governor, whereupon he wrote and tent the following dispatch: Governor II. D. McDaniel. Macon, Oe.-A num ber of citizens headed by the ordinary and repre sentative* have called In a body to ask for a respite for fifteen days for Henry Cato, under sentence to be executed, that further facte mar be presented. The delegation insist upon this dl??pat?h being cent and rtqutrtani answer. J; W. Wabbxx. The delegates then went to. the telegraph office and telegraphed the governor atkiug tor a respite for filteen days so that an additional tbowW for Cato might be made. The dele gation was thoroughly in earnest and will leave no atone unturned to save Cato???s neck. They do not ask for a pardon, but the requett made Thursday waa for a respite with a view to making a showing for a commutation to lifetime imprisonment. It was a very re markable sight to see a dozen prominent busi ness men come on snch a mission and appear ao thoroughly in earnest. Thursday the Decatur telephone line waa kept busy with questions relative to the governor's action. Cato did not know of the movement in bis be half and fully expected to die Friday. THE GOVBaVOl COMES HOME. Governor McDaniel received the despatches about night, and at once determined to come home and make a full investigation, and to bear the applicants for tbs respite io person. He reached the city ins* b-fore midnight, and Friday morning the DeKalb oohnly delegation * P (Eitoclainte that Dnkea provoked the diffi culty, struck him first ana knocked him down and that he waa in close quarters when the cutting occurred. The Governor Reprieves Cato for Fifteen Days. Governor McDalniel was waited on last Fri day morning by Hon. John B. Steward, ordi nary of DeKalb county, who came to mako a last apuenl for Henry Cato. He asked that flf- teen days be given, and stated that if in that time the people of the county could not satisty, the goveruor that Cato ought hot to haug, they would quietly submit to his ruling. Af ter hearing Judge Steward fully, the governor said he thought the request a reasonable one and issued an order reprieving Cato for fifteen davs. When the governor signed the respite it was nearly 10 o'clock. An hour or so more and Cato would have been BTANDINO OS THE FATAL TBA>. Judge Steward took the respite and rushed to the depot only to find the Decatur accommo dation steaming around the curve at Butler street. The bearer of the respite stepped to a telephone, called up Decatur and told of the governor???s action. He then took a hack and, giving the driver an extra fee, fairly made the wheels bum over the road to Decatur, arriving theie at twenty minutes to eleven. The horse was covered with foam as he stopped in front of the jail. Sheriff Hunter was quietly' awaiting tho reception of the respite. When the telephonic message was received,Mr. Henry Austin weut to the jail and called out: ???Uncle Cato I" The old man went to the window, and asked what was wanted. ???I???ve good news for youl??? "Wbat?" ??? ???You'vo got two weeks morel" ???Thank God I" said the old mtn, clapping his hands. ???This is the work of my white Christian friends. Tho Lord only knows whut would have become ot me it it had not been for the white folks." THE OBHKRAL HANDSHAKING. A number of people were admitted to Cato's room, and tne old man shook hands and took on at a great rate. He was almost wild with joy ond hardly know what to db with itude to tho whito people, and (hose who had interested ther behalf. He was exceedingly grateful to Judge Steward, who has worked so hard in his be half. IIo expressed his deepest grat- lite people, and especially to those who had interested themselves in his NEWS BY WIRE.
