Storrs, of Ruth Garrison fame, is free. He was pardoned Tuesday by Acting Governor William J. Coyle and is today in Seattle with his mother, Mrs. S»M. Storrs, 403 Ninth ave. Storrs was the husband of Mrs. Grace Glatz Storrs, 28-year-old. Broadway high school graduate, to whom Ruth Garrison fed a poisoned fruit cocktail in the tea room of the Bon Marche March 18, 1919. The Garrison girl confessed to the murder, but was found not guilty on ace of mental irresponsibility. It was impossible to connect Storrs with the murder, but he was tried for the Garriscn girl, who was only 18 years old at the time of the crime, and was f guilty at Okanogan on June 9, 1919. He was sentenced to from; four years‘and eleven months to five years in the state| penitentiary at Walla Walla! —the maximum sentence— but did not go to prison until oe garnet 19, 1921, his unsuccess- consuming nearly was oan coonlaeah that he had been made “the goat.” The pardon was recom- mended by the parole board dressing some months ago but Gover- Mareh nor Louis.
