Jeffords signed the brief notice of appeal in his own name, so availing himself of the right under the laws of the state to act as his own attorney in appealing to the state supreme court. No indication of the grounds upon which the appeal will be based was given in the notice. The notice, written on a typewriter, follows: <4You will please take notice that ' the defendant, Frank M. Jeffords, intends to appeal and hereby appeals from the verdict and sentence in the above case this 29th day of May, 1922." The notice was headed by the name of the case.

Should it be perfected the case ' could not come up before the supreme court until the second Tuesday in October when the next session of the court will be held. The case would then have to be argued before the court and if the appeal is sustained the case probably retried. If the appeal should be denied Jeffords would then have to be resentenced before execution. Will Cause Delay. In case, however .the appeal is never completed, as was the appeal of S. J. Kirby, Solicitor Spigner will be forced to wait the expiration of the 30 days before he can take any action in the circuit court to secure the dismissal of the appeal. This will carry the delay beyond the next term of court and will postpone the resentenc-* ing until the session following. Harrison as yet has made no move toward an appeal and it is not known whether he will follow Jeffords' lead or not. Under the law notice of appeal to the supreme court may be filed at any time after conviction and within ten days after the rising of the court. The session of the court at J which the three rfiien were tried will j last through this week and Harrison ' therefore will be allowed ten days after Saturday in which to file notice of j appeal. He would then be allowed \ the usual 30 days in which to com-| plete and perfect the appeal. It is possible also that the state may secure the postponement of his execution by a series of reprieves from the governor until the case of Jeffords has been finally decided. Treece also has made no move but is now serving his life sentence in the f state penitentiary. James H. Hammond and John Quinn, who were appointed by the PROBATE COURT.
