A CONVICT FOR LOVE.
Strange Story Told by Prisoner In
Sing Sing.
IN JAIL TO SAVE A WOMAN.
Easshawe Submitted to Years OF lni-
nrIsonment to Protect Elizabeth
Heart From Punishment FOr
ArsOn-She Has Confessed.
IN JAIL TO SAVE A WOMAN

New York, Dec. IAN astounding
story comes out of Sing Sing prison.
John NJ. Davies Fanshawe, the son OF
a famous old New York merchant and
connected by blood and marriage with
families worth millions, has been con-
Wet there for many years-wearing the
stripes of shame-for a crime commit
ted by another.
A most curious il not extraordinary
feature of the case is that, so far as
the real culprit Ca woman) is concern
ed, she cannot be punished nor pro-
ceeded against because under the stat
ute the crime has been outlawed. An
indictment for arson or any other lei
ony except murder must be found with
in five years after its commission. The
woman has confessed, but she-the
guilty one-is legally free, while Fan
shawe-the innocent man-must serve
out his term for crime he did not COM
nit unless pardoned by the governor
Such is the irony of fate and incidental
ly the law of the state of New York.
Henry A. Fanshawe, his father, is
retired New York merchant, residing at
Morristown, N. j. Nearly all the menu
bers of the Davies family have retired
with fortunes.
This is the story: Young FanshaWe
was clerk in the Knickerbocker Fire
Insurance company in 1888. AS man and
wife he and Ruth Elizabeth Heart were
living in a lodging house at so East
Twenty ninth street. One night soon
after he had insured his effects for 81
900 the building was discovered burn
ing in six places, and some Of the in
mates had narrow escape from death.
Fanshawe managed to get out of his
front window. His alleged wife was alb
sent visiting friends in fremont
Efforts to Save Him.
Mr.. Charles w. Brooke, the distin-
guished criminal lawyer then living,
became his counsel, and all the re-
sources of the profession were employ
ed in his behalf He most earnestly
pleaded his own innocence. But so
many circumstances in the case pointed
to incendiarsm that the jury's verdict
was guilty, with recommendation for
mercy. Recorder Saith sentenced him
to 121a years in Sing Sing. A stay Of
proceedings was obtained, and pending
motion for new trial his grandmoth-
er, Mrs. John M. Davies of New Haven,
WiOSc lOIluIlc was sdlu W cACceO @I,-
900, 900, went his bail for $4,000.
During this interval he was employed
as clerk in Broadway house furnish
ing establishment, and later he put in a
few quiet months with friend boat
ing and fishing in New Jersey 1t Is
said that he was advised to forfeit his
bail and leave the country, but he re-
fused, even though the motion for
new trial was denied. Then he sur
rendered himself and began serving OFT
his time in Sing Sing. But for the jurys
recomme ndation of mercy and the 6 eat
exertions of his friends and counsel he
would have received a full life SEN
