L. Douglas, East Killingly, is one of the three who seeks to be pardoned. Kor an assault on a female child, Douglas was sen- tenced March 12, 1912, at Putnam, to | gerve from three to seven years in the state prison. Douglas, who is married, “eloped” from Wast Killingly with a girl of tender vears, the couple being arrested a few days later in Westerly. Harry Chippendale, a resident here for a number of vars, is another of the trio seeking pardon. Chippendale was convicted on a slaughter May 17, 1910, and sentenced to serve from three to six years. The manslaughter charge srew out of the death of a New London girl, following a criminal operation, and the case was given -added significance by the sui- cide of a Moosup physician when an officer went to arrest him in connec- tion with the matter. In filing his ap- plication for pardon, Chippendale sets forth that when brought into the case he zave the state valuable services, for which he was promised absolute immunity, and asks, if not released unconditionally, to be paroled in cus- | tody of the sheriff, During his confinement Chippen- dale has perfected several patents, and is-assured of work as soon as re leased.
