J. C. BRANNON
Governor Colquitt Monday cele-
brated his fifty-first birthday by
signing fifty-one Christmas par-
dons—one for each year of his
life. Each pardon was a condi-
tional pardon, with the stipula-
tion that it shall become null and
void whenever the benefactor
shall become guilty of miscon-
duct. Life prisoners must be
obedient to the laws of the state
for the rest of their lives if they
do not wish to return to the peni-
tentiary. Governor Colquitt’s
recently adopted pardon policy is
that he will grant only condi-
tional pardons which, to remain
effective, require a good behavior
record during the entire term of
sentence.
Any peace officer is authorized
to take into custody again any
person holding a conditional par-
don who violates its provisions
during the unexpired period. A
ten-year convict, who gets a par-
don after serving seven years,
must continue on his good be-
havior for three years. A life-
termer must be on his good be-
havior for the rest of his life.
The governor has had the condi-
tions of few conditional pardons
violated.
The Christmas pardons will al-
low the liberation of the fifty-one
recipients in time for them to be
with their families for Christ-
mas. The governor’s pardon sys-
tem provides for the allowance of
pardons on special occasions, and
especially at Thanksgiving and
Christmas.
