nert T. Patrick, who is serving a
’life sentence in Sing Sing prison
f or the murder of William Marsh
Hiee, an aged millionairi^, in New
York city on September 23,1900,
was pardoned last night by Gov
ernor Dix.
Patrick, who was saved from
the electric cha r, by fthe late
Governor Higgins in December
iS06, has made a remarkable
rghi (or freedom. A lawyer by
profession, he protested when
(-overnor Higgins commuted the
death sentence to life imprison
ment declaring that the governor
had no legal right to cancel the
orginial sentence and impose
punishment of life imprisonment.
‘ ‘There has always been an air
:t mystery in this important
• a?e/’ Governor Dix said, “quot-
ng from the minority opinion of
the court of appeals, ‘the atmos-
pbere that sureoanded the de
fendant showed that a fair and
'rnpartiai trial was scarcely pos
sible.' ,
“I trust that Mr. Patrick will
ievote his energies to a complete
indication of his declared in-
'x--n2e.
‘Daring the past year I have
given much consideration to this
■ ase and am convinced that the
df-fendant is entitled to have, a
^1: pardon.’'
Governor Dix said Saperinten-
ient of State Prisons Scott and
-:ores of prominent citizens ap
pealed to him in Patrick’s behalf.
I he pardon was mailed last night
to Warden John S, Kennedy of
>"3ingSing and Patrick will be
