STATE OF MINNESOTA
STATE BOARD OF CONTROL
Mason-6785 April 3rd-1924
C J Swendsen,
Chairman,
State Board of Parole,
Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Dear
Sir:-
Regarding the attached I was Judge L. S. Nelson on March
27th and he recommends parole or pardon for Max mason-6785. Says he
is rather doubtful if there was ever a crime committed but a jury passed on the
case and there was enough testimony to support their verdict, so he could not
allow a new trial. Judge Nelson said he would put his recommendation in writing
and mail it to you.
Respectfully
yours,
HBW
State Parole Agent
