MOST NOTED CONVICT
WANTS HIS RELEASE
HE KILLED A PosTOFFICE IN.
SPEcToR WHO FOUND HIS
ACCOUNTS SHORT.
Special to The Netcs.

Special to The Netcs.
Jackson, Miss. Aug. 30.-Governol
Brewer has been petitioned to grant
a pardon to Will Sersby, one of the
most noted prisoners in the state peni
Tertiary. The matter will come up for
executive review about two weeks
hence.
Seven years ago Sorsby shot and
killed Charles Fitzgerald, postoffice
inspector, and one of the most popu-
lar men in the state, on the depot
platform at Clinton. Only a few min
utes before Mr.. Fitzgerald had finish
ed checking up the accounts of the
Clinton postoffice, where Corsby was
employed as deputy, and found the
young man short in his accounts.
Sorsby appealed to the inspector
not to report the matter to the depart
ment. Mr.. Fitzgerald said that he
could not make promise of that sort.
but would try to help him out of the
trouble. This did not satisfy Sorsby.
He followed Mr.. Fitzgerald to the de-
pot, and, just as the latter was board
ing the eastbound train for Jackson,
pulled a pistol and shot him through
the abdomen. The wounded man was
hurried to Jackson, and died a few
hours later in local hospital.
Sorsby fled after the shooting, and
was not captured until several months
later when he was found in hiding in
the attic of neighbor's house, only
few hundred yards from the spot
where he had killed the federal officer
Friends and relatives. it seems, were
awaiting an opportunity to slip him
out of the state and aboard a vessel
bound for some foreign country. A
rumor started among negroes that he
was being kept in concealment gain
ed currency, and the capture was
made one Sunday morning by a posse
of Jackson citizens led by Jack Cain.
Sorsby was tried, convicted and sent
to the penitentiary for life. His es-
cape from the gallows was due largely
to sympathy aroused by his young
wife, girl of striking beauty, whose
beautiful brown eyes, Overlooking
with tears, were continually fastened
on the jury during the long and tedi-
Gus trial in which several of the most
noted lawyers in the state partici-
pated
The sentence was affirmed by the
Supreme Court, and Sorsby was sent
to the Rankin convict farm. The pc
tition asking for executive clemency
bears the following caption:
eve call Your Excellencys atten-
ton to the fact that at the time of
his conviction Sorsby was only TWEEN
ty-One years of age; that he has serv-
ed six years in the state penitentiary;
that he has labored very hard and
made a model and obedient prisoner;
that we believe he has been sufficient
ly punished and that he will now make
the state good and lawful citizen.
We therefore recommend to you that
he be grated a pardon"
The relatives of Sorsby have en-
ployed Messrs. Watkins & Watkins, |
of the Jackson bar, to present the
argument to Governor Brewer in be-
half of the petition. 1t is certain that |
a counter petition will be presented |
by friends and relatives of Sorsby's |
victim, who were much disappointed |
when the jury failed to give him the |
death sentence.
