Pardon from Prison

Petition for pardon was filed yes
terday at the office of the secretary
of State by Sumner p. Award of
Greenville, who at the February 1926
term of the superior court of Penob-
scot county was convicted of the
crime of manslaughter and was SEN
tened to not less than four years
nor more than eight years in the
States prison at Thomaston. being
committed to prison Feb. 5. 1926.
In his petition, Award sets forth
the following reasons for executive
clemency: THAT the sentence i'm
posed is not commensurate with the
charge upon which he was convicted
and that said sentence was excess
sive; and that the nature of the
crime upon which he was convicted
is not one involving moral turpitude
and that, therefore. the sentence i'm
posed was excessive, and that he has
already served sufficient penalty"
