Patterson Boy Faces His Fate In Georgia Prison Row
In a quiet week at the state pardon board, Burrell Patterson of Heard County seeks commutation from death to life. The session also reviews the Water Berry death, an Italian vagrancy case dubbed Andy Greer, and A J Plunkett's liquor conviction. Pension funding remains short by about 817,000, with governor Terrell and Lindsay arranging warrants while a private donor offers to bridge the gap. New counties form militia districts and prepare educational and governmental structures ahead of full county government.
