Former Norwioch Man Serving Life Sentence in Rhode Island. * Governor Pothier of Rhode ' Island has received petitions asking for the pardon of two men now serving life sentences for murder, Dennis C. Mur- phy, alias “Spike” Murphy, formerly of Norwich, and Allen W. Dorsey. Both these men have been inmates of the Rhode Island state prison for upwards of 20 years, The crimes for which they were sentenced were of nature which startled the communities in which they occurred. Murphy was convicted of kil ‘Waterman Irons, and Dorsey for death of Benjamin Burton. ‘The murder for which Murphy was incarcerated oc in_the summer of 1883, when people on Christian Hill were shocked by the death of Water- man Irons, nearly 90 years old, who for more than 60 years had conducted a small hide store on the south side of what was then High street, now Wi minster, in & small bullding, opposite Dean street. The aged merchant was known to carry large sums of money in an old-fashioned wallet in an in side pocket. About the middle of an afternoon in the latter part of August, 1883, just after Mr. Irons had returned from lunch, Murphy and a companion, who was sald to be a man named Hackett, entered the place and engaged the merchant in conversation. The two intruders attacked the storekeeper in the back room, one clutching him by the throat, while the other attempted to_take the wallet from his pocket. Mr. Irons made such a fight that-he was thrown to the floor, one of the assallants falling upon him. In they fall, one of Mr. Irons’ ribs was frac tured and it punctured the intestin>s, the contents of which, flooding the ab- dominal cavity, caused peritonitis, from which the merchant died the fol- lowing day Murphy was speedfly captured, but his companion managed to make his escape from the eity and although the authorities have sought for him, they have been unable to trace him. Mur- phy was about 19 years old when he came to Providence, and ,posing as a prize fighter, fell into bad company, which finally resulted in his implica- tion in the murder case, Murphy, after his imprisonment gave the prison authorities considerable trouble and was considered an incor- rigible by the late Warden Viall. In the eafly '9 s, when “Gentleman George” Bllwood made an attempt to :)reak jau Murphy wes his compan- on, This was the most desperate attempt to escape ever recorded at the Rhode Island state prison. Just as the two prisoners reached the door leading from the prison yard to the jail wing they were met by Deputy Warden Rowe. Ellwood grappled with the dep- uty, but Murphy fled back to the shop. Ellwood was shot bfif&\ny Rowe and died from the woun: e deputy was 80 seriously injured im the struggl l':‘tl:r his death followed a short time A number of attempts have been made to secure a pardon for Murphy, and the petition of his friends h been recelved annually by the chi executive, FORMER NORWICH WOMAN STOPS RUNAWAY.
