From Confinement.

Thomaston, Me. Nov. H-For the
FIRST time in 2s years, Ephraim W. Clark,
alias William Smith. who was sentenced
TO prison for life for the murder of FIRST
mate Patterson on the schooner Jeffer-
son Borden on the high seas October T.
1875. stepped forth from the state prison
at s:l0 a. m, today a free man. having
been par,doned by President Roosevelt.
Notice OF the commutatlon OF Clark's
sentence TO 80 years was received by
telegraph Nov. 10. but the prisoner could
not be released until the formal par
don papers arrived. These documents
came to tho hands OF Warden Hillman
Smith on the first mail today.
After a day or two at Rockland, his
birth place. he viii spend Thanksgiving
Day with friends at Union. The first
of the following week, according TO his
present plans he will go to Boston TO
visit a sister.
Although Clark had been confined be-
hind the white walls for over a quarter
OF century, he gave no outward ap-
pearance OF real gladness OF his coming
liberty until this morning. when he enter
ed the guard room at $40 with quick
step. He was dressed I'm a good suit OF
grey mixed goods, wore a black soft hat,
black necktie white shirt and new shoes
and appeared neat In every way.
i've got no time to lose" said Clark
II served my time and took my medicine
like man. / feel the same as sailor who
has been on a long voyage, just reached
port and gone ashore"
While speaking he was adjusting his
dress. which seemed to be snug fittins.
He looks up and said jokingly. IF ]
eat much dinner ] will have 20 unbutton.
1t seems very comical TO be logged out
I'm these clothes after being in stripes so
long" Looking up at the clork he said,
1T is just quarter to nine. l will take note
OF that"
He was called into the room OF the
deputy warden where he signed receipts
for his discharge and received the usual
amount of money given a departing pris-
oner for transportation. five dollars. He
was then accompanied to the wardens
office where he received his pardon pa
pers signed by the president, this being
the first signature OF President Roosevelt
coming to this prison. when handing
over the papers Deputy Wyman said:
CLARK. here are your papers. You can
read them at your leisure" II won't read
them now" replied the free man.
Clark seated himself near the prison en-
trance and waited for the electric car TO
appar to take him TO Rockland. with n
sigh OF relief he said In slow voice,
Everything comes TO him who waits"
Chaplain Pummer then drew near and
clasping hands firmly with Clark said
with fervor and emphasis THE Lord
bless you BE good"
II will try to- replied Clark. meaning
ly. "None of us are perfect"
He then shook hands with The warden,
deputy warden and other officers, who all
wished MIN well. Clark ran to catch his
car and started for Rockland, this being
the first time he ever rode on an electric
car. He has seen them from the prison
windows. however. He sat composedy.
but one could see the great JOY beaming
from his countenance.
