BOARD OF PARDONS MEET
Pardon of Former Policeman Thomas
f. Blakely, Held Over for a Week

The State Board of Pardons Thurs
day afternoon after hearing an appli-
cation for a pardon for Thomas F.
Blakely, a former policeman of Will
mington, who shot Superintendent of
Police George Black in October, 1925,
deferred action until Thursday of this
week, so that an examination of the
condition of Blakely's health may be
made in the meantime. Andrew c..
Gray represented Blakely. He asked
for the release of Blakely on the
ground that his health is impaired and
would be endangered further if he is
not released. He said Blakely was in
toxicated at the time he shot Chief
Black. Deputy Attorney General Will
ley opposed the pardon on the ground
that the assault was aggravated, and
pointed out that Blakely had served
but two years of his six years SEN
tence. The board decided to have an
examination made of Blakely at the
workhouse by physicians before they
act finally on the case this week.
Fred Villone, who was serving a
ten-year sentence for robbery, was
granted pardon. He was sentenced
in March, 1924. He asked release on
the ground of his youth at the time
he committed the crime and the need
of his wife and daughter for support.
His companion convicted at the same
time, Edward Downes, has been par
doned.
