AN UNUSUAL CASE.
READING, PB., Aug. 15--Freedom
is believed to be the sight for Mrs, Kate Edwards, the most remarkable woman prisoner in, the United States. For clsven years' the woman has been con-fined in the Berks County iail under sentence of dleath. Once a, gal- lows was erected where she could see it from hor window. Then came a rc- lirieve, which reached the jail whilc a ulluister was administering the last. rites to the condemned woman. Since that time three governors of Pennsyl- vania have declined to sign the death warrant, and now her case is to he brought before the board gf iiardons with the probable result, it is believed, that she will be given hsr freedom.
Mrs. Edwards and a negro 'named
Gleason were arrested for themurder of the woman'e husband. The negro VI!! a l'l&!'amour of the woman, and the husband declared he would kill her. -
In fear of her life Mrs. Edwards
killed her husband one night and threw the body into a well. On a sec- ond trial Gleason was acquitted, but the_woman was convicted’ and sentenc- ed to be hanged.
Mrs. Edwards _came to prison vici-
ous- to the last degree, a drunkard, unkempt, desperate and intractable., she 'was like a wild beast. Good women and patient ministers worked years to reform her. The success of their efforts have been nothing less than marvellous. Today the woman possesses a fair education, is an adept at needle work, extremly neat in her personal appearance and deeply reli- gious ill her nature
