Life of Boy Bandit Saved Again
Ralph Fariss the young bandit who killed Horace Montague during a Southern Pacific train holdup at El Monte was reprieved by Gov. Johnson until January 15. The reprieve followed representations by attorney Wheaton A. Gray of Los Angeles and was not due to Mrs. Montague’s letter. The decision prolongs Fariss’s life and may foreshadow further reprieves amid anti capital punishment sentiment. Fariss awaits in San Quentin and was to be moved to the death chamber Wednesday.
