Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 February 1915 — Effort Made to Parole The Murderer of John Mitch. [ARTICLE]

Effort Made to Parole The Murderer of John Mitch.

Crown Point Register. A petition is being circulated here and at Lowell to Governor Ralston and the state board of pardons asking that a parole be granted to Glen Jones, who was sent to prison for his connection with the fight that cost John Mitch Ms life at Cedar Lake last winter. The petition is being generally signed by many citizens of Lake county, who feel that Glen was led into evil ways and now sees the error of them, and should he given an opportunity to make a man of himself, There seems to be no gain to society in keeping young Jones in further confinement, and his release would give him his chance to become a useful Citizen.
