Duluth, Minnesota
March 2, 1921.
To The Board of Pardons of the State of Minnesota,
Gentlemen:
Believing that an unjust verdict was arrived at, and that he
is being unjustly imprisoned, I wish to call your attention to the case of
Gilbert H. Stephenson, lately sentenced to a term of not more than five years in
Stillwater, for an alleged participation in a riot in this city the fifteenth of
last June.
That he did not commit or intend to commit any offense, but was
only a bystander is the opinion of ninety percent of the people of St. Louis
County.
I therefor (sic) ask that your honorable body grant him an
unconditional pardon.
Respectfully yours,
F. A.
Arnold
