“Locked 19 years, Commitment was mistake, Woman is free,”
is the headline of a recent Associated Press story from Detroit.
Mrs. Louise L. Hardway, 61, gasped with Joy as County Circuit
Judge Lilia M. Newfelt, ruled she was committed without suffic
ient evidence 19 years ago. She had tediously drawn up her own
legal document which opened the gates of the institution that had
confined her since 1935. Judge Newfelt said the
hand-written habaes corpus prepared painstakingly
in what Mrs. Hardway called ‘bedlam’ was in per
fect legal order.
Mrs. Hardway boarded a plane for New Orleans
where she has a daughter and 10 brothers and sis
ters. She had saved money for the ticket, part of
it coming from greeting cards she made in the state
hospital and then sold. Police arrested her in 1935
during an argument over a debt owed her. She
was placed in a hospital for observation. The ex-
amining doctor didn’t testify in the court proceed-
Dt. Spaugh ings. He only signed an affidavit sayfhg she had a
persecution complex and was irrational.
Once active in Detroit politics and the operator of a secretarial
service, Mrs. Hardway wants to forget the last 19 years now.
“Everyone who came to see me told me I should not be impris
oned,” she said. “So many said they would help me U> get free
and I waited and waited.”
There is a story in the Book of Genesis which is similar to this.
Joseph was falsely accused and cast in prison. While there he in
terpreted dreams of two fellow prisoners. One of them was shortly
released, according to the ^interpretation of the dream. Foretelling
his release Joseph said, "Think on me when it shall be well with
thee, and show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention
of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house ... I have done
nothing they should put me into the dungeon.” In due course, this
prisoner, the chief butler, was released. The record says, “Yet did
not the duel butler remember Joseph, but forgot him.”
Two years went by and the king of Egypt had several dreams
which troubled him. None of the wise men of Egypt could inter
pret them. Then the chief butler remembered his experience and
said unto the king, “I do remember my faults this day.” Then he
told of his experience with dreams. Joseph was immediately re
leased, brought to court, and interpreted the dreams for the king.
Mrs. Hardway’s friends were like the chief butler, they were pre
occupied with their own affairs. Both forgot friends they could
and should have helped.
Sometimes we can be busy about the wrong things. Think now,
have you forgotten somebody you promised to help?
Fairfield County's Lyles Says Barnwell Ring
Had Nomination In Bag Before Committee Met
(Prom The State)
Former Senator J. M. Lyles,
who represented Fairfield coun
ty on the State Executive Com
mittee meeting last Friday when
Senatpr Edgar A. Brown was
nominated, last night made the
following statement about the
proceedings:
To the Editor of The State:
The Barnwell Ring had their
machine oiled and running
smoothly at the meeting of the
State Democratic Executive com
mittee meeting in a Jefferson
hotel room on Friday afternoon.
Upon my arrival I saw at once
that the machine was hitting on
all cylinders. The avowed pur
pose of the meeting was to make
plans for choosing a Democratic
nominee for the United States
Senate to take the place ai the
late Senator May bank. I saw at
once that everything had been
decided. It was plainly evident
that a majority of the committee
were determined thmselves to
name the candidate. The people
of South Carolina were to be dis
franchised. Much telephoning to
many counties bad already been
done and many conferences with
individuals already held. Every
thing was in ship-shape.
They had the votes sewed up
—argument meant nothing.
The Hon. Neville Bennett stat
ed very clearly the details o< his
conference with the Attorney
General as to the proper proce
dure. Many of ous thought and
still think that Mr. Bennett got
from the Attorney General an
opinion that a primary could be
legally held. Some of the law
yers in sympathy with the Ring's
desire to name the candidate
muddied the water with techni
calities and confused many mem
bers of the committee. The truth
is the Ring knew what it wanted
and was determined to have, and
the opposition was confused and
uncertain. The Ring was organ
ized, the opposition was not.
The steam roller flattened us
completely. I did what I could
in favor of a primary but knew
I was beaten before I started.
It is a great pity that a small
group of men can disfranchise all
the people of South Carolina.
They say, the Ring that is, that a
primary could not be legally or
dered. The fact is that there
could be a legal primary, but the
Ring had the volts in the body
that had the power of interpreta
tion, and what they said went.
They were entirely ruthless in
the wielding of their power.
They believed that the people
would submit. It may be they
are correct. We shall see what
we shall see.
There is one clear section of
our election law which even the
Barnwell Rim cannot misinter
pret or misrepresent, that is the
section which allows any voter
to strike the name of any or all
