Governor Freezes John McGee After Perjury Conviction
John McGee of this county was pardoned by the governor and released from the penitentiary. He had been found with a stolen horse, arrested and convicted. The trial was said to have been a setup, but the judge had no alternative. A petition for his release was signed by all who knew the circumstances. The governor’s action is viewed as probably just.
