electric chair at the District Jail
January IL, for the murder of
Milton ''MilSie" Henry, local gam
bier, in a letter to James A. Finch,
pardon attorney Of the Depart
ment of Justice.
A movement has been started
by several prominent citizens seek
ing to have the death penalty i'm
posed on Harris commuted to life
imprisonment. Mr.. Finch had
written Mr.. Garnett for his recon-
mendation in the case.
In his letter, Mr.. Garnett
pointed out certain evidence con-
nected Harris with an automobile
which had been used in the
shooting. The letter also stated
a salesman from Camden, N. j.,
identified Harris as the purchaser
of the car, but then refused to
testify against him in court, be-
cause he had been threatened by
a strange man to forget all
about it,"
