The main object of her visit is to endeavour to save from the scaffold the youngest son. by proving that he waa under 18 when he killed a Ins Angeles policeman. If she succeeds in proving this the State law will not permit the boy to be executed. The second son is serving a term for bank robbery, while the third is imprisoned for the theft of an automobile on a farm. “They were all good boys,” sobbed the mother, “tut they changed when they came to the city.”
