i SENTENCE IS
• COMMUTE!)
Word was received from Washing
ton by the Federal officials of Valdez
jthat President Wilson had commuted
ithe death sentence of William Demp
I
;sey, confined in the Valdez jail un
der sentence of death for the killing
of Margaret Lavore and Deputy U. S.
Marshal Isaac Evans at Seward, last
September, to imprisonment for life.
Dempsey, who is about 22 years
of age, was sentenced to be hanged
at the fall term of court, by Judge C.
E. Bunnell of the Fourth division,
sitting for Judge F. M. Brown. A
I
stay of sentence was given for ninety
days in order to allow the condemned
man to perfect his appeal to the cir
jcuit court, which he failed to do. |
In the meantime it is believed that •
relatives and others interested in the
young man in the East, made appeal
for executive clemency on account of
the youth of the murderer.
The news was a distinct shock to
the people of Valdez, who while much
averse to having Dempsey executed
here felt that justice was cheated by
I
(executive intervention,
j Dempsey will be taken to the pen
jiicntiary within a few weeks to start
his long term of confinement.
The case for which he was convict
ed was a most revolting one, Demp
sey enticing Margeret Lavore, a hab
itue of the redlight district in An
chorage, to his cabin on a pretext of
giving her liquor, and then brutally
murdering her by beating her in the
head with a monkey wrench. The
crime was committed for the purpose
of robbery and there were no exten
uating circumstances. Dempsey took
the train to Seward, where he was ar
rested by Deputy U. S. Marshal Ev
ans, a man much revered by all who
knew him. While being taken to the
lockup Dempsey pulled a gun he had
concealed about his person and shot
the aged marshal dead.
He was found guilty of first de- :
gree murder in both cases, and in
both cases sentenced to be hanged.
