Reprieve for Slayer of 6 Is Sought
At torneys for Frank Harris, convicted of murdering six people, said they would file an execu tion eve petition today to keep Harris from going to the electric chair. Harris, 69, is scheduled to die at dawn Friday. He was convicted in the deaths of Mrs. Leonard Dever and four of the six children. That conviction got him the death sentence, and a conviction in the death of Leonard Dever got him a life in prison sentence. The Devers died and their farmhouse near Trumann burned on the night of Dec. 21, 1963. Harris has maintained his innocence. His attorneys said they would file a habeas corpus parva today in U.S. District Court here, based on Harris' contention that he was denied due process and a fair trial. Joining attorneys Ben Mc Courtney and H. E. Ellis of Jonesboro in the latest legal move to halt the execution are attorneys Kenneth Coffelt of Little Rock and John F. Gibson of Dermoit. The man who would have to supervise the Harris execution, C. E. Bishop, new prison superintendent, would be doing the job for the first time. Bishop, who has witnessed one execution, said capital punishment is not the harshest kind of punishment. "It just takes a man out of it," Bishop said, "If you really want to punish a man, put him in prison at hard labor for the balance of his life." Bishop declined to reveal his personal feelings on capital punishment.
