Wiscasset to
Native Son
COUNCIL DEFERS
WORD ON PARDONS
TO next MEETING

Action was deferred by the Gov
ernor and Council until the next
meeting, Friday, October 16. follow
ing the hearing Of two petitions for
pardon at the meeting Tuesday
morning at the State House. the
cases aired at the session being those
of Jacob Goldman of Bangor, serv-
ing a term in the Penobscot county
Jail for the unlawful deposit of liq-
ouor, and Arthur w. Libby of Port
land, serving a term in the Cumber-
land county Jail for driving an auto
mobile while intoxicated.
Frank Fellows OF Bangor appear
ed as counsel for the petitioners In
behalf of Goldman. who was SEN
fenced to pay a fine of $500 and costs
and to serve five months in jail and
in default of payment to serve SIX
months additional in jail.
Attorney Fellows argued that the
sentence in Goldman's case was ex-
cessive, that the man was given IL
months for the possession OF nve
quarts of liquor, that he has already
served four months of his sentence,
that he has no money with which
to pay the fine, that he has large
family In Strengthened circum-
stances, that 1t would be better for
the governor and council to pardon
Goldman as he can support his wife
and children rather than have the
CITY support them, that there was no
evidence of any sale and that the
complaint in the case was made by
a. party who had been ordered out
of Goldman's house.
Ex-State Senator William H.
Looney of Portland appeared for the
petitioners in the case of Libby.
Libby was sentenced to serve ~
months in Jail and was committed
June last.
Attorney Looney presented pc
tition signed by IT'S residents OF
Cumberland county favoring par
don for Libby. He stated that for
many years Libby had been employ
ed by the Grand Trunk Railway
Company and that 40 of the en-
ployes of this company had signed
the petition.
A letter was read from DR.. John
w. Comedian, Jail physician for
Cumberland county, stating that
Libby had, grown old and morose
since his confinement.
II talked with some of the per-
sons who signed the petition for the
pardon of Libby and they said that
they never saw Libby under the In
fiuence of liquor" said Attorney
Looney.
'Libby's friends say that Ex-Ch1ef
of Police Elmer H. Waterhouse OF
Portland had grievance against
him, but Libby has admitted that he
drank liquor on the day in ques-
ton.
II would not take this case II l
did not believe that Libby should
be pardoned."
