SAYS MoLINEU1 rs INNOCENT.
MRS. FOSTER, THE ToMBs ANGEL" THINKS
GREAT WRONG WAS DONE IN
CONNECTING HIM

Mrs. John A. Foster Familiarity known as "the
Tombs Angel" on account of charitable work
done in connection with the City Prison for many
years. said yesterday that Roland B. Molineux
unquestionably innocent, and she ventured
the prediction that he never would go to the
death chair
II became we'll acquainted with Molineux in
his long stay in the Tombs" said Mrs. Foster,
and at first L greatly prejudiced against
him. 1 thought for the first two or three weeks
of his Imprisonment that the people were most
fortunate in seeing dangerous criminal capt
ured The motive seemed to plain enough.
Molineux never tried to become better acquaint-
ed with me- as / saw him from time to time.
This interested me- as prisoners crave human
sympathy, no matter how taciturn their tenn
permanent before they imprisoned. then
began to make study of him day by day.
After watching him for the greater part of
year, have not the slightest hesitation in say
ing that he is undoubtedly innocent In fact,
know he is innocent don't think anything
charged with murder in the first degree, as
MoneuX was, ever underwent protracted
stay in the Tombs without exhibiting
trait of a debased nature Many of them have
entered the Tombs jauntily and confident
enough. but as time wore on they would give
their true light. Moneux has been the sole
exception, so far as my observation goes. From
the start he has been the courageous gentleman,
stoutly maintaining his innocence, always ten
der toward his friends. and respectful and obedi-
ent to those in authority. 1t is unnecessary to
say anything about the evidence used by the
prosecutors TO convict Molneux. That is all
past and gone. But those, like myself. who
have seen Molineux day by day know that he
terrible wrong has been committed in convict
ing him. and I am convinced that something
will develop while he is in Sing Sing that will
shed light on the case and lead to his ac-
