Son Seeks Lifelong Service to Free Father in Murder Case
A Georgia man Dr W Rushin of Albany asks Governor Terrell to admit him as a convict to serve his father’s life sentence for the 1895 murder of J F Lilley in Thomas County. The son says eight years of toil have aged his father and asks to die at home after decades of imprisonment. The governor cannot grant the request, as noted by the Atlanta News, marking a remarkable case of filial obligation.
