Montgomery. Ala. April II J


 Charley Thompson, building con- tractor. who has served since April 14, 1916, on a life sentence for mur- der imposed by the St. Clair circuit court. was granted a parole by Gov ernor Brandon today. Thompson has been a trusty practically the entire time he has been in prison and ren- dered material assistance in the con struction of Kilby prison. In 1918 he was granted a parole by Governor Henderson in order that he might superintend the construction of new prison at farm No. 4.
 Thompson was convicted for the killing of a sub contractor named Hall Information submitted to the board indicated that there may have been prejudice against Thompson be- cause he did not reside in St. Clair county. The former board of pardons recommended clemency and the reco- mendation was concurred in by the new board. Governor Kilby declined to grant the parole last August and placed in the file a statement saying that he did not believe Thompson had served long enough.
