Why He Was Left Prisoner Petition in Washington to Spare Barrett
Jefferson City dispatch notes that federal prisoner Thomas Barrett was not moved to Lansing Kansas. Barrett, once a Missouri political figure and clerk of the court of appeals, managed prison paperwork and reforms at the Jefferson City hospital. A broad petition from Democrats and Republicans sought to keep him at the Missouri facility, with Bartholdi and others backing the effort. Barrett was praised as a decent, capable inmate who urged better work by wardens and inmates alike. The piece also recounts the death of Barrett's brother, Thomas B. Darden, in Tennessee after a fall, with a note on a prior Alabama coal-mine cave-in incident. Wesley Darden is among nine brothers and a sister living in several states.
