feature Takes Grim Tell
The sympathy which has been aroused
for the condemned man is due te the
fart that fate has smitten him heavily.

In bis prime, weighing well ever 200
pound. A j ear later, when he was
c.irrd from his cell in the Delaware
Ceunlv inil at Media te the death heue
at Ilellffentc. I'a.. he weighed less than
half that und was a wizened, shrunken,
'helnlevs paralytic.
rthyne s breakdown in health followed
awlftlv en Ills conviction. Ills case was
a puizle te the physicians at first.
Graduallv he Inst the use of his legs and
was confined te his cot In his cell in
Murderers' Hew in the jail. Dr. .1. II.
Frcnfield. the prison physician, gave
him every possible nttentien. nnd a
"truety" was assigned te nurse film.
At lenctli the disease was pronounced
myelitis, a form of pnral.s!s which was
epidemic throughout the country sev
eral yrars age, when it wns called "in
fantile pnrnh "Is," but which ordinarily
li a rnre dUease.
(Jeorge Allen, warden of the Media
jail, did everj thing possible for the
condemned innn. and when fmnlTy the
order cnuie for his removal te the death
house at llellefente, refused te deliver up
the prisoner In his weakened physical
condition te Sheriff firniiKer without a
receipt. This the Sheriff refused te
live.
Had Sympathy of Jailers
As a matter of fact, the sympathies
of the two officials were aroused, and
they took advantage of the technical
clah of authority te leave Hhynu in
peace a little longer.
A writ of habeas corpus was taken
out by the Sheriff, and Warden Allen
was forced te take rthyne Inte court en
l Btretcher, a pitiable figure with the
mark of death en h!h face. The court
ordered tlint he be turned ever te the
Sheriff ( and he was conveyed as ten
derly as possible te the death house.
Fer a time It looked as though it
would be necessary te carry him te the
electric chair, as June 20 had been
fixed as the dnte for his execution.
Harden Francis, of Uellefente, wns
gored f te sympathy, and mlvNed

ASKS $20,000 PAYMENT
Suit te compel payment of $20,000
for nlleged legal rrrvices has been
brought ngnlnst Mnjer A..T. Drexel
Hldd'e by Mrs. A. Florence Yerger
Hngnn. wife of Philadelphia Jack
O'Drien.
Among the services Mrs. Hngnn as
serts nh performed Is thnt of having
effected a reconciliation of Mnjer Illil
dle nnd his wife.
In a statement of claim filed In Com
mon Pleas Court Ne. 4 Mrs. Hngnn
savs she devoted vlrtua'iy all ner time
from May 14 until September 20 of
lut year te the work grven her bv Majer
Piddle. She says she saved him many
thousands of dollars In work for which
she has never been reimbursed.
The statement itself does net mention
the name of Mrs. Piddle, although Mrs.
Hagan said much of her time was spent
in effecting the reconciliation.
"I arranged their first meeting nfter
they hnd parted." she said, "and when
Mnjer Piddle talked te Mrs. Piddle
ever the telephone I steed back of him
coaching his remark". Lawyers had pre
viously effected nn agreement between
them that Mrs. Piddle should receive
JjSlfi.OOO yearly. I was successful in
obtaining a cancellation of that agree
ment." Other services Sirs. I In gnu says she
performed for Mnjer Piddle were pro
tection of an S80.000 trust fund from
nttack and cancellation of an agreement
te nav S4000 te a member of the
family.
Mrs. Hagan nlse sets forth In her
filed claim that she obtained release of
Mnjer Piddle from personal responsi
bility for bends of the International
Sporting Club, valued at $750,000. The
Club was te erect a bul'dlng at Forty
seventh street and Lexington avenue,
New Yerk. Majer Piddle had signed
the bends as president of the club. She
obtained his release as president, she
says.
Majer Piddle organized the Drexcl
Piddle Plble Clnss In this city and
worked Indcfntigably te bring their en
rollment up te the prevent figure of
many thousands. He was also active
in voluntary training work in the army
camps during the war.
"It was, expressly and verbally
agreed." begins the petition, "that the
plaintiff should he'd herself scpcclally
nvailable at nny time of day or night
te the cnll of the defendant. The de
fendant vcrbnlly premised he would pay
the plaintiff such sums' as these services
were reasonably worth. The services
te be performed Included all trips te
New Yerk City nnd Albany, concerning
the connection of the defendant with
the I. S. C. Corporation, etc."
"The plaintiff agreed te tend te these
te the exclusion of all her ether practice I
if necessary. ' The defendent often was I
in the plaintiff's office or In her upart-
iiient, sometimes for hours nt a time. ,
for advice and consulttien, making it '
necvessnry for tne planum te ih gleet
li
er general practice.
"At the first Inte
interview the defend
ant said he was willing te pay 820,
000 te bring te n successful termina
tion one of the affairs and the plaintiff
procured nil necessary papers with
out payment by defendent of nny sum
whatsoever."
Mrs. Hagan would net specify which
item was rcrerreu te in the nbeve ex- i
tract. She claims S20.00 and Inter
est from September 20. 11120. She ad
mits having been paid $1000 for partial
services.
