Downing Pardoned by Gov. Odell After Spending Twenty-four Years in Sing Sing Prison for Manslaughter. John S. Downing, after spending twenty-four years in Sing Sing prison, wes pardoned to-dny by Gov. Odell as @ New Year's present, but he is sick in ‘the prison hospital and will not be able to leave until to-morrow. { Downing, who is now seventy - two years old, has been in Sing Sing longer, -than any other convict. He was con- sidered the ‘‘dean” of the prison. It would be difficult to estimate the num- ber of convicts who have come and gone while he has been a prisoner. ‘When Downing was arrested on a| charge of having murdered his wife in) ‘their miserable rooms in a rear tene- | ment et No. 44 West Nineteenth street | there was a lew which made man-| Maughter punishable by life imprison- ment. Although Downing, who was a shoe- maker, was charged with murder he was permitted to plead gullty to man- slaughter, and was sentence to life im- prisonment. Since then the manslaugh- ter law has been changed, and the pen- alty 1s not so severe, Got 2 Habeas Corpus Writ, Last January Downing tried to secure his Uberty by bringing habeas corpus proceedings before Justice Gaynor, of the Supreme Court, in Brooklyn, When he was brought to New York on that writ it was the first time he had been out of prison in twenty-three years, The world was all new to him. But Justice Gaynor refused to release him on the point his lawyers made, holding that he was legally sentenced on the law which then existed, and that the courts could not now interfere with that sentence. Downing was returned to Sing Sing, but ‘the story of his servitude had Drought him active and powerful friends, and since then they have been interceding with the Governor. The re- wult was a pardon on New Year's day, | When Warden Johnson recelved the pardon this morning he went to the hos- pital and told Downing of it. Downing was 60 affected he wept like a child and cried: What shall I do? I don't know whether I ought to go, Maybe I better stay here. This {s the only place I know now. I wouldn't know what to do in New York. And I know every stone in this prion, every nook and corner, I have been communing with them and I am afraid I shail be very lonesome with- Mine Ward told Downii hay ‘The Warden tol wning that the friends who had obtained the pate would provide for him when he left thi jyarven That pleased him greatly, an cided that he would come to’ New York as soon as possible, The doctors say he can go to-morrow. lenriques Armed Him: There was only one man who 0; ed the release of Downing.

The fascinating bookmaker was her steady customer all that season. She says he took her for frequent evening rides out to the Lake House, where they had swoot little suppers. She says that Du Bois promised that she should “never want for anything as long as she lived." They were fricndly until the summer of 192, when he urged her to send for her sister, in Richmond, Va., and after her arrival cut loose from Miss Cam- den, promising to pay her $100 a weolt in consideration of ber giving him his Uberty. Gave Her $100 a Week, Camden says Du Bois did send her her $100 weekly for several months, but suddenly ceased, and after’ waiting forty-six weeks she appealed to Mr. Hummel and this sult resulted.
