1t was charged that he embe2zled
about 81 900 ana attempted to cover
ii up by forgeries Gus Seawel, the
prosecuting attorney says;
II am thoroughly convinced that
while he is legally guilty, yet he is
not morally 50, for the reason that
| am satisfied he was used as tool
and have the party whom | believe to
be the real guilty party under arrest
upon indictments returned at the same
term of court"
A statement Of the case and petition
for pardon is also presented by At.
torneys Troy Pace, James NJ. Shinn,
and Ben Rowland, the latter one OF
he largest stockholders in the bank,
who say that It was the understanding
that a pardon would be requested after
Korff had served three months. They
add:
"Korff has a young wife, daughter OF
prominent minister of North Arkan-
sas, who has deyotedIy cung to her
husband through his trouble, They
haG been married but a short time
when his crime was discovered and
we feel that her influence and devo-
tlon will insure in the future no other
fall by him."
The governor also pardoned Jake
Lewis, negro, convicted in Decem'
Der, 1908, In Mississippi county, Of
murder in the second degree and SEN
fenced to 21 years. He killed Buster
Brown, another negro at Ross, The

Love was so thoroughly under the
Influence Of liquor when he committed
the murder that 1t Is believed he was
totally void Of reason and judgment
and not capable Of understanding and
knowing right from wrong"
