Rowland Receives Double Sentence in Green Ridge Fire Case

John Rowland and his wife Mary were convicted of arson at their Albright Avenue home. Rowland pleaded for mercy for his wife, but the judge imposed one sentence of six months to one year and six months in the Eastern Penitentiary, plus a separate term to begin after the first. Mrs Rowland faced mercy as the judge upheld some culpability, ordering her to recognize bonds and potentially return for further action. The court also sentenced other defendants including Miss Dingman and Degan for related offenses, with varying fines and terms.
