One Man Pardoned by Taft for Calms of Insane Inmate
President Taft granted an unconditional pardon to Loreno D Barnes of the government hospital for the insane. Barnes overheard a plan to release many convicts and alerted guards, leading to preventing a mass escape. He had been convicted of killing a man who defamed his wife and was serving a life sentence when insane. Taft also denied clemency to Clarence Kedwell in Indian Territory, calling the murder brutal and noting the escape from hanging was undeserved.
