BOSTON, August 30-Fron
the safe confines of Philadelphia
penitentiary where he was serving
a sentence for robbery, a harden
ed crook and gunman has stepped
into the shadow of the electric
chair.
To save two brothers convicted
of murder!
Like Jean Vatican in fiction, Jesse
Murphy, 81, is bent on freeing the
innocent, although he may sacrifice
himself in the offering.
'I've been crooked all my life, but
I'll be damned if I'll see two inno-
cent young fellows suffer for what
I've done," he said So he signed q
confession that may be his death war
rant.
On Feb. l, 1917, Edward P. Foley,
manager of Roxbury chain grocery
store, was shot and killed by bandit.
Four nights later, Ordway P. Hall,
manager of another grocery store of
the same chain in Dorchester, also
was shot and killed.
Charles and George Rollins, Of
Roxbury, brothers, were arrested,
charged with the murders. Their old
mother was nearly frantic with grief.
They tried to put up an alibi. The
prosecuting attorney broke it down.
They were convicted on circumstan-
tial evidence.
George was found guilty of the
murder of Foley. Death is the pen
atty.
Charles was convicted of murder in
the second degree. He was sentenced
to life Imprisonment.
Lead by the mother, the Rollins
boys friends started long legal
fight to save them. They applied for
new trial. But the Supreme court
denied the application.
1t looked black for the boys
When Jesse Murphy entered the
case.
He was serving a II year term for
shooting and robbing a Federal Re-
serve Bank messenger on one of Phil
adelphia's busiest streets.
Friends informed him of the plight
the Rollins brothers.
Under the prick of what was left of
his conscience, he told what he knew
of the Massachusetts murders. In 6
written confession he told how he
kiilen Foley and what part he had
played in the murder of Tall.
He did no. Know the Rollins boys
and had never seen them.
The goyerrment said that he was
insane.
But Jesse Murphy 3efied the alien
lists to prove i.
The governor of Pennsylvania par
doned him so that he might be turn
ed over TO the Boston authorities for
trial on the murder charges.
Now Murphy sits in the cell in the
Charles Street jail
Happy. :.
'1'm going through With this-all
the way" he says. 81 stand by my
confession as strongly tonight as the
first night / made it.
