WOMAN MURDERER IS GRANTED FULL PARDON Mrs. Kate Edwards Sentenced to Death, But Execution Was Never Ordered.

.¶ READING, Pa., Feb. 28. — Mrs. Kate Edwards, who was convicted of the murder of her husband in 190l. has been pardoned. She was secretly removed from prison early Friday. There had been rumors for several days that the woman whose conviction and sentence to death caused intense excitement thirteen years ago. would be freed, but the steps in freeing her were taken with the greatest secrecy. An automobile rolled up to the prison about 4 o'clock Friday morning and a few minutes later Mrs. Edwards was hurried out to the machine. The car dashed away. .¶ The prison officials refused to discuss the pardon or Mrs. Edwards' whereabouts, though they admitted that she had been freed. .¶ Mrs. Edwards has been under sentence of death during the entire time of her imprisonment. Her case was the most remarkable in the history of Pennsylvania courts. .¶ Because of her sex none of the governors who have served since her conviction has cared o order her execution by fixing a date for carrying out the mandate of the court.
