Must Answer Murder Charge.
Willis Ponder. ; deppty warden in
charge of the penitentiary camp- at
Jakln, Early county, and Dr. H. G,
Mlnter, physician of the camp, will
have to answer to -the courts the
charge of murder as the result of the
death, about two years ago, of Frank
Kent, a negro convict, due to a cruel
and Inhuman form of punishment
The facts In the case were only re
cently communicated to the prison
commission In a letter written by Si
mon O'Neill, a recently pardoned con-
vict, sent up from Chatham county for
voluntary manslaughter. O'Neill’s
charges against those in authority at’
the camps were made through the
newspapers JuBt after he was given his
liberty.
According to the statement made by
O'Neill, Frank Kent met his death as
the result of a form of punishment
not authorized by the prison commls
sion and about wh'lch nothing was
known until O’Neill’s charges ap
peared.
Kent was put In what they called
a “sweater."' This consists of confin
ing the victim In a place near a red
hot stove completely covered with
many blankets. This punishment was
administered by several convicts at
the direction of Ponder.
Kent was kept in this condition as
long as It was thought advisable, or
about three hours. He was then com
pletely exhausted and Dr. Mlnter did
all he could to revive him, but the next
day Kent died. The punishment was
Inflicted because, it Is stated, Kent
was an unruly convict and did not like
to work.
No report of the matter was ever
mad© to the commission by the camp
authorities, andf Dr. Winter's report
simply stated that Kent had died from
aerebral congestion. Two years later,
or a short time ago, the matter came
to the attention of the prison commia-
ston and an Investigation was at once
made with the result thht Ponder and
Mlnter will be prosecuted, the first for
murder and the second as accessory
after the fact,
