Duluth, Minnesota
February 19, 1921.
To The Board of Pardons of the State of Minnesota,
Gentlemen:
I wish to call your attention to the fact that I well know
Gilbert H. Stephenson, lately sentenced to Stillwater for participating in a
riot June 15th last. That while in the employ of George H.
Lounsberry, said Stephenson worked in my department of Mr. Lounsberrys
organization, and that I always found him to be of good moral character and
thoroughly reliable in every way. I also beleive (sic) that a great injustice
was done him in finding him guilty, as do a large majority of the people that
heard the evidence.
I therefor (sic) pray that your honorable body grant him
an unconditional pardon, which I beleive (sic) to be the wish of ninety-nine per
cent of the people of this county.
Respectfully
yours,
[illegible]
Superintendant of Construction,
G. H. Lounsberry.
