The tall North Carolinian, a. veteran of the Spanish-American war, during one of his unheralded departures front the leprosarium^ visited Washington and prevailed on Congress to place the Carrvllle Institution under Federal operation. Early said he also visited Chattanooga. Tenn , Ashevllle, N. C., Chicago and Milwaukee and made on? trip to his 60 acre-farm near Tryon, N. C.. "Just to see what the old place looked like." His trips wore financed from his war pension of $72 a month. Early would remain In seclusion and voluntarily return after he hud satisfied his passion for travel. The Illness developed while Karly was on his farm shortly after the Spanish American war. He shouldered ? a shotgun Hnd swore he would never leave. I3ut finally he was persuaded that the Institution would be the best place for him and came peacefully. Karly's most dramatic appearance was before a congressional cotnmlttoe considering the bill to authorlzo the Federal government to take over Carrvllle. Members were frightened by the leper's announcement of his Identity. It was reported that Karly remained In the room until the committee had reported the bill out and then submitted to custody. Congress passed the law.

The noted lawyer-philosopher died at his home hero yesterday after a long illness with a heart ailment. He was 80 years old. With him at the end were his wife, Ruby, his sou, Paul, and a sister, Mrs. Jennie Barrow Moore. During his half century in courts from one side of the country to the other, I>arrow was always the tiefender, tho pleader. He fought for the poor, the oppressed, the captive and the weak because, as he once said, "those found in prisons are practically always poor; It is a game where the dice are loaded and the victim Is almost sure to lose." His outstanding legal cases were in defense of Kugone V. Bebs, many times Socialist candidate for president; "Hig Bill" Haywood and other officers of the Western Federation of Miners, charged with the slaying of J former governor Frank Steunenberg. I of Idaho; Richard Ixmb and Nathan Leopold, "thrill slayers" of little Bobby Franks; John T. Scopes In tho Tennessee "monkey trial," and Mrs Granville Fortescue and Lieut Thomas Massie. F. S. N., tried for the slaying of a native in Honolulu. The I>oeb-Leopold case was one of the most celebrated Barrow ever fought. It was in the summer of 1924 that Barrow defended the two sons of wealthy families for the kidnap-murder of a 14 year old boy. He once termed the murder "the most foolish, most motiveless act ever conceived by a diseased brain. Nobody's Business Written for The Chronicle by McQee, Copyright, 1928. WE TURNED RITZY FOR AN EVENING ..The wife and I were invited out u few evening (nights) ago to one of those so-called forma) parties. We hud to dress up for the occasion. Dress Ing up to me is a uightmare, but they tell mo that 1 look fairly woll (in, the dark) dressed up. ..Fortunately 1 own a tuxedo, bettor kuown as a tux, so they say. But bofore pulling it out of the chlffer robe closet from amongst the moth-balls and other smelling things, 1 took a shower, oiled my bald-head, trimmed the dirt from under my finger-nails, cut all 6 of my whiskers off, powdered my chin, brushed my teeth and put drops in my eyes. | . Then came the dressing feature of the ordeal. I got my shirt on; it has a wash-board front and a band-saw collar. The-former would not bend while the latter kept me looking right straight up all of the time. 1 wore two "a la Woolworth" shiny studs in the front of the washboard, and a pair of "a la Kress" cuff links, but I suspect others at the party likewise were sporting expensive jewelry and bo forth. ..Tho little black bow tie was snapped around my collar. Every time 1 would got my breath, It would hop up to the top of the collar while the bow-part would point north and south Instead of east and west, as nice lit tie bow ties ought always do. My goozler took the worBt punishment it ever experienced before; 1 can sympathize with those Henry VII prisoners who were glrotted before and after each and every meal. T.1 tried to bend over and lace my shoes, but there wasn't a chance in thousand to do a stunt like that. ? I called a neighbor In. bless her sou),, and she helped me with my accoutrements . . . with a smile. She had never seen me in distress before. My vest had 2 buttons on it; in fact, that'B all it ever had, it being made that-a-way. It was cut very low, plumb down to the top of my britches. ..I finally got everything on, I thought, but had left off my BVD's; sb 1 could not stand the rub, I had to dp everything over again. We tinally got to the party. I saw many other persons there that were suffering just as I was; aome necks and chins were bleeding where the collars had nipped them, but everyboddyrs Bhoulders were straight, hnd hufiipbacks of 15 years standing, were as erect as a telegraph pole. Yep, we had a mighty fine time, that is?with the exception of what those evening clothes did to us. My old lady wore almost nothing in the back and so forth; she suffered also.
