Fate Deal* Cruelly With Life of Condemned Man For the sixth time Frank D. Keaton has been saved from death. By now he holds Jittle fear of it. Perhaps he is even inured to it. Prison guards believed so when they led him out of his little whitewashed cell in San Quentin’s condemned row. Were they at last taking him on that long walk of no returning? He didn’t care anymore. Instead they took him where few condemned prisoners have been taken before . . . away from the gallows and out of the shadows of the death house. Friday morning, the thirteenth, he was to mount San Quentin’s gaudily painted sky blue gallows and pay with his life for shooting to death Motley H. Flint, a leading financier of Southern California, with a rusted pistol in a crowded Los Angeles courtroom in 1930. But the fates that have dealt with him so cruelly in the past 30 years, snatched him back to the ranks of the living again ... he wonders for how long this time. His sentence was commuted to life imprisonment by Governor Olson. His first bit of luck came along in the early twenties when he inherited $13,000 and quickly increased it to $35,000 through a series of carefully planned investments. Luck was still at his side when he married Mariam Keaton, former missionary in China, who later presented him with two fine daughters. At last his life was full, but for only a short time. Soon luck turned her back on him again. The depression came along and not only wiped out his little fortune, but as his friends later claimed, took his mind too. In his mad desire for revenge he turned on a total stranger, Financier Flint, who loomed in his dazed eyes as a sinister figure, who, somehow, was to blame for his money losses, his business reverses and a “pain in the head.” When he first entered prison and was awaiting his-turn in condemned row, he showed positive signs of insanity. State psychiatrists examined him and agreed and because the law forbids the supreme penalty for a crazed man, Keaton was sent to the Mendocino State hospital at Ukiah.
