Was Durrant Innocent Man?
The following sensational story
in regard to the Durrant case ap
pears in a California paper, says
throughout Ottawa Citizen:
“One of the saddest and most
atrocious legal murders so far re
corded is that of Theodore Dur
rant, who was hanged in California
a few years since for the murder
of Blanche Lamont and Minnie
Williams, a most diabolical dou
ble crime, its very fiendishness
hardly having a parallel in the
annals of vice, and its perpetratoi
was sought high and low for sev
eral days, the whole world hop
ing for his capture and punish-
meut. In the meantime the
so-called astute detective and
police authorities concluded a vic
tim was needed, and after fasten
ing their clutches on young Dur
rant, proceeded to collect what
they termed evidence, the whole
mass of stuff in all probability
being manufactured for the pur
pose of conviction, and all of a
circumstantial nature. Durrant
stoutly maintained from his arrest
up to the moment of his execution
that he was innocent of the hor
rible charge, but, forsooth, be
cause he could not explain every
moment of his presence at certain
times, he was convicted and
hanged, and once more the maj
esty of the law, along'-with the
thick-skulled theory of ; these
police wiseacres, was duly vin
dicated;: v *
“Now the true sequel:* A few
days ago, on his death bed, Rev.
Mr. Gibson, who at the time was
pastor of Emmanuel church,
where one of the murders was
committed, confessed that he
killed both of the victims. He
was an active and important wit
ness at the trial of poor Durrant,
the reason of which is now quite
plain, and also in view of the fact
that suspicion was strongly di
rected to him at the time.
“Theodore |)urrant w|s hanged
at San Quentin prison, California,
on June 7, 1398. With his feet on
the gallpws the rope about his
neck and the hangman turning to
get the black cap. Durrant whis
pered a request to be allowed to
speech he protested^his innocence,
declaring hejwas not guilty of the
crime.
