When Collector of Customs Nal
colin A. Franklin received copy this
week OF his home town" paper, the
Columbus (MicsissippD Dispatch, a
news story in il took him back in
memory to the COS. when he was one
OF a number Of Mississippians who
successfully petitioned the governor
OF the state FOR a pardon for Will
Purvis, an innocent man accused OF
the murder OF q man named William
Buckley, who was shot TO death from
ambush in 1892 -.
Puryis was condemned TO death. On
the morning OF the hanging the moose
abo1t his neck slipped after the trap
had been sprung. 4 minister present
declared this an "act of God" and
refused to allow the execution to pro.
coed. Franklin and his brother took
the lead in obtaining a pardon for
PurVis. They were successful after
many years.
On March II Of this year Joseph
Beard, aged GO, when dying OF pneu-
monia on his farm near Columbia,
Mississippi. confessed that he and
two other men had, % years ago. com.
mitted the murder of which Purvfs
was convicted. Purvis is still living, in
Lamar county, Mississippi. The Dis
Patch says of the dramatic incident:
Confessed TO "Holy RoIIers'' - J..
Beard, attaches of the sheriff's of.
flee said, first confessed his part in
BuckIey's murder to members of a
religious sect. which he recently
joined in order to clear his conscience
Later when Beard was convinced he
was dying of pneumonia, the authori'
ties were notified. Beard, il was stat.
ed, gave the names Of two other men
who he said participated with him in
the murder and the authorities said
they knew where to locate them, but
declined to say whether any action
against them vas contemplated after
