Brake was asked It he ha(l any thing to say before sentence was passed and he replied: "A I said he- lore I am Innocent of the crime for which I have been convicted and am sorry to have to stand up here and be sentenced to life in prison, for something I never did. I am sorry for my brothers nd sister and for my dear old father and for the stain on the family name. I am most sorry for the Jiy that found me guilty on such Bhort deliberation and in time they will be sorry for what they did." Judge Campbell spoke to the man, saying he was sorry for him but that he himself was mostly to blame for the short time taken by the Jury to decide his case. "Your actions on the stand, the utter lndlfferenco and the callousness you displayed and the manner in which you an swered the questions undoubtedly had their effect on the Jury." Tom Garland, attorney for Rrake, asked ten days In which to file fo" a new trial and a stay of twenty days In the execution of the sentence. The former was granted but Judge Campbell stated that he did not have the authority to grant the latter Garlan, also asked that the second confession of tieorge Moore, exoner ating Brake, which was witlilield during the trial, be delivered to the county clerk pending the plea for the new trial.

Just as he was leaving the sheriff's office to start his trip to Salem one woman gave him a handshake and Drake managed to smile. Deputy Sheriffs Hughes and. Long left for Salem with Brake at 11:00, soon after the passing of the sentence.
