HIS NECK SAVED
Archie Libscombe, Who
Killed Negro "Cunjur-
err" Will Not Die
on GaIIoWs.

Governor Aycock yesterday COM
muted the death sentence of Archie
Lipscombe, of Granville, to imprison-
ment in the penitentiary for life. Lips
combe will arrive this morning to COM
mence to serve the sentence.
The crime for which the prisoner
was tried and convicted was one which
grew out of the ignorance of the muir
derer and the fear which he had of
the supposed supernatural power OF a
negro who had set up regularly as a
professional "conjurer"
The killing occurred after u visit by
Lipscombe to the medium" for adj
vice, during which the two men got
into a discussion of scripture, and the
meaning of the various tenetS there
set forth.
AS the discussion became warm,
Lipscombe stepped to the door, got
his gun and shot the conjurer dead.
The sanity of LipscOmbe was made
an issue on the trial and it was plead
ed that his act was the result of de-
mented fear of the powers" of his
victim The jury, however, convicted
Iipscombe and sentenced him to
death.
The reasons of the Governor, for the
Communication, are as follows:
The death sentence in this case is
committed to life Imprisonment at
hard labor in the States Prison. |
caused the prisoner to be examined by
DR.. J. f. Miller, superintendent of the
Eastern Hospital for the Insane. DR..
Miller is of the opinion that the prls-
Cner, while not insane, is of a very
low order of intellect and was in
nuenced to commit the homicide
through fear Of the power of the de-
ceased as a conjurer. The deceased
had the reputation of being conJur-
err and his powers were feared by a
great number of colored people, in
Guiding the prisoner. Great numbers
of citizens of the county have written
strong letters to me urging the COM
mutation of the sentence upon the
ground that the prisoner was insane.
Many of these are impressed with the
belief that he committed the homicide
by reason of his fear of the deceased.
| am of the opinion that there is suf-
fcient doubt as to the responsibility
of the prisoner to justify me in COM
muting the sentence from death to
Imprisonment at hard labor for life.
