nth HOUR APPEAL
FOR CONDEMNED

Columbia, June ia strong ef-
fort is being made, as is often the
case in capital punishment cases, to
have at least two of the trio sentenc-
ed to die Friday of this week for the
murder of William Brazell, saved
from the electric chair. However,
Governor Harvey has indicated that
he will stand against changing the
sentence of death imposed in those
cases.
A petition was presented to the
Governor Monday, asking that Jesse
Gappins' sentence be commuted to
life Imprisonment. Mrs. Gappins,
mother of the boy, and young wo-
man who stated to the governor that
she was engaged to marry the young
prisoner, have both been to see the
governor, asking that the boy be al
lowed to live. A prominent Columbia
woman has also taken an interest in
the young criminal, and has had
much to do with the petition for ex-
ecutive clemency.
But Gappins is not the only one
whose friends have been at work for
him. Mrs. S. J. Kirby, wife of the
leader of the murder trio, has called
on the governor, with prayer that
her husband might be given an ex-
animation into his sanity. Mrs. Kirby
told the governor that Kirby has a
silver plate in his head and was sub
ject to spells of insanity. She told
remarkable stories Of his period Of
mental weakness and the harm he
worked. The governor ordered an in
vestigation, but he will not change
the decision of the court in Kirby's
case.
The petition which was presented
for Gappins was signed by twenty
seven people, eleven of them members
of the jury that convicted the trio,
and that heard the three men tell un-
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1922-06-14

blushingly of their murder OF the
young Columbia taxi driver, whose
car they wanted to steal and sell.
Governor Harvey is being warmly
commended throughout the state for
his firm stand against the idea of free
Sc of the pardons in such cases as
these. The governor has not issued
any formal statement as to what he
will do with these petitions, but he
has made it known that he will not
interfere with the decisions Of the
courts. No reasons have been set
forth why these men should not get
the dues ordered by the jury of their
peers, the governor stated.
