AGED PRISONER FREED FROM A LIVING DEATH Undergoes Moral Resurrection During 38 Years Confinement Uy Samuel H. Knott, UP Staff Correspondent Madison, Wis., Jan. 15.—JJ.P.) —Resurrected from the living dead by a pardon which ended 38 years of confinement in the Waupun. Wis., state prison. Joseph •'uchs, 73, today is on his way back to Germany, the land of his birth, a land which, as a "lifer,” he never expected to see again. Out of a we ter of fierce emotions that caused this man to murder in 1890, out of the long, dulling monotony of 38 years spent in prison, lias come a calm, a qu’etude of the soul that is like a religion to this kindly, white-haired “lifer.” Prison life may harden some men, but 38 years of it did not seem to harden Fuchs. He emerged as kindly an old soul as one could find anywhere. “I have learned my lesson," the old man sighed when he was brought before Governor Fred 11. Zimmerman the day after Christmas to receive a "special" pardon certificate in addition to the regulation one lie received on Christmas Eve. ■ I m an old man now," he said, "but I know that never again will there be trouble in my life. It was a long time, 38 years; but I am happy. This is my happiest Christmas." JOSEPH FUCHS "Love thy neighbor,” was the philosophy which the man adopted during his long years of imprisonment, and he practiced his creed. He was a model prisoner and for this reason, he said, prison life was not extremely hard for him because he always was treated kindly. "There was so much time to think," he said, “ —so much time to think ” Not quite all of the story of Fuch s life is known in this country, because he never would tell al. Even after he was released from prison, he con- I tinued to maintain silence concerning : the crime for which he was convicted. I In Germany, Fuch s wife, faithful | to him through all these years, awaits . his return. Mis. Fuchs still lives at the old Fuch s homestead in Train, | Germany—the homestead which Fuchs est to come to America. When Fuchs came from the prison i at Waupus to the capitol here he rode ! in a motor bus. tlie first he ever had ■ ■seen. Here he heard a radio for the
