P. Freeiing, attorney general
holds Quille McConnell, sen-
tenced to death for murder In
Lincoln county, was to have
been executed in the sentence
of court, and th? journal entry

attorney general held that a
death warrant was necessary.
He has sent one to J. A. Em-
bry, county attorney, with a
request that it is filled out and
all of the niceties of the law
be complied with before Mc-
Connell is made to pay the

some time was the main stumbling
