THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PITI L A.P E LPH1 A, MONDAY, MaUCIT G, 1871. 6 PETITION OF FHAMC Mc GfAUO UR A N. Oat remarks on Saturday In reference to the case of Frank McGithran, convicted of shoot ing a p id all hoy on Christmas Day, and sentenced by Judges Ludlow and l'axou to ten years im prisonment lu the Eastern PenUeJitlary,have evi dently inspired the fi lends of the bully-used man to tuke active measures for his release, as will be ?een by tbe following petition which was picked up In the street this morning by one of oar reporters, and which weake the liberty of laying before the public. The argument? of McGaiitrhran are certainly unanswerable, and they should tneet with theiprouipt attention of bis Excellency John W. Geary, Governor of the State of Penn sylvania; and in order that all who may be dis posed to see equal justice done to poor as well as rich may aid in procuring McGaugbran's prompt release from durance vilo signatures to the petition will be received at this odlee. We expect an early visit from Messrs. Richard Flckcn, William U. Mann, and Lewis C. Cassldy, three honorable getit.1 Allien whose signatures to McGaughran's petition will undoubtedly have a potent influence with his Excellency. 2'o Hi hxtUcncy on. John W. Orary, Governor of the Commonweilth of Ptnn'ylrani(U The petition of Frank McOaugtiran humbly prsyeth and showeth, that he now Is and expects to be for a long time, to wit, ten years, unjustly and Improperly deprived of his liberty and of tht free and untrammelled comuunlotlon with Society to which he Is eutitled by the wIsa and beneficent laws of this Commonwealth, as expnunrtd anl enforced by the said John W. Oeary, Oovernor of Pennsyl vania, lu the leading case of The Commonwealth vs. Richard J. Flcken. Your petitioner humblv prayeth and showeth that, on the 85th day of December lHBt, to wit, the day commonly called Christmas, while engaged In the festive but permissible occupation (see case of Com monwealtn vs. F.cken) of shooting small boys, was rudely, violently, and maliciously seized and bound, and despite his persuasion, protest and resistance was, against, his will, conveyed to the ceil of one of the prisonB In and for the city of Philadelphia, to wit. Moyamenslng; and was there Improperly and unjustly confined of his liberty, and was fed upon black bread and bean-soup, against all which his finer sesthetlc tastes revolted. Your petitioner far ther showeth that, on the first day of March, Instant, he was, ft et mr.mis, removed and conveyed from his cell in satd prison, and was, greatly to the impair ment of his dlgulty and his se.f-respect, throat Into a square box upon four wheelB, painted of a sombre color and drawn by two horses, bays said box being vulgarly known aud described as Thk Black Maria; and that lie was made to accompany therein certain common sneak-thieves, prostitutes, and other vulgar characters, to tbe Court of (Quarter Sessions, where he was, against the law as established by your Exce'lency John VV. Geary afores.tlil, put upon his trial, bis alleged oiTense being the aforesaid shooting of a small bo.v, to wit, one Qeorge 11. Fury. Furthei, your petitioner sheweth that. In Ignorance of; the law ol the land aa writ and established by your Excellency, etc., in the case of ihe commonwealth vs. Flckcn, certain men, commonly called judge of the said court, together with a person commonly known as a District Attorney, who your petitioner belleveth and expecteth to prove to be a political opponent of your Excellency's, did, In contempt of the wise precedent set up by yrur Excellency In the case above cited, proceed to try your said petitioner, under the color and pretense that the shooting of small boys in this Commonwealth was an indictable and punishable offense, by virtu of certain statutory er common law, did try him at the bar of said court, and din, jpon conviction, sentence him, In mookery of justice as Interpreted by your Excellency in the case of Commonwealth vs. Flcken, to an Imprison ment of ten years of solitary confinement at hard labor In one of the prisons of this Commonwealth, to wit, the Eastern PeLltentlary. Y ur petltionor therefore prayeth for sach re'ief as be Is entitled to undt r the precedent established by your Excellency in the above often cited case of the Commonwealth vs. Flcken, by which all former laws or statutory enactments against the free and untrammelled shooting of small boys are forever abrogated, extinguished, and made void la this Commonwealth. further, your petitioner represented that his case Is Identical with that of the said Ficken, excepting that the small boy shot by your petitioner did judi ciously and wisely die, while the small boy shot by the said Flcken did live, but be until this day re mains a cripple, and will so remain during his natu ral life. It being represented to your petitioner that your Excellency's legs are now and will always be the receptacle of many hundreds of bullets, viciously shot Into them by the Rebels at the battle of Qettysourg, where, owing to your generalship and bravery, the huigry hordes of Lee were defeated, your Excel lency will percHve that tbe fate of the boy who died was preferable to that of the boy who lives, as your Excellency does, with a lead mine In his leg. Your petitioner is assured that he need not prolong this part of his argument, because your Excellency "knows how It Is yourself." Your petitioner further showeth, In order that his just and humble prayer for relief may be granted, that he Is a poor man, and one tgn jraut of the ways that are dark, through which the obsolete laws against punishment for ahootlng small boys are evaded by rich men like Ficken. When your petitioner was Incarcerated in a common jail, he was Instructed and Informed that It would be discreet and wise In him to employ certain men learned in the law to defend him against yonr Excellency's political enemy, to wit, the said Fnrman bbeppard, District Attorney; and being so directed, he did employ said men, learned In the law and powerful In debate and fluent In rhetoric, but your petitioner now learns and Is Informed that his proper course, established by well known precedent, that Is to say, In the case of Com monwealth vs. Ficken, would have been to employ certain men commonly known as and called Par- don Bhokkks, namely, one wiuiam is. Mann ana one Lewis O. Cacstdy, who would thereupon have seen your Excellency. Your petitioner further showeth that he Is now for the first time made ac quainted with tbe fact that the precedent In the case Of Common wealth vs. Flcken was bonght at a great price, and that, In addition thereto, certain officers of the "RoWpetitioned tbat said precedent removing the penalty for shooting small boys should be ren dered Void. Your petitioner represented and prayeth that he is not now or never was a rich man, and that he cannot par to the said Pardon Bkokeks, to wit, William B. Mann and Lewis C. C'assldy, a large sum Of money, but be Is Informed and verily believes that If a smaller sum will serve to show to your Ex cellency the Injustice of punUhlDg a poor man Tor shooting small boys, that such small sum will be coutrl' uted by the precinct managers out of certain election funds In their possession; It being shown to said managers that your petitioner, owing to his Skill as a shootist, can be made of effective service to your Excellency about tbe time your Excellency is to be a candidate for the office of President of the United States, to which position your heroism and services lu every battle of the Rebellion entitle your Excellency. Your petitioner Is further Informed that for the same reeson various members of the Union League, the Sheriff, ltecelver of Taxes, Register of Wills, and other oftlcera of tbe Row are willing to sign any form of petition your Excellency may suggest, as likely to meet- yur Excellency's views, In case your petitioner can succeed In obtain ing tbe amount of money necessary to satisfy your Excellency's conscience and enlighten yourExoel lencv's luminous miud. Your petitioner further prajeth and represented that he new languishes In prisou owng to tbe Iguo- rance of tbe law displayed tu nts trial ny toe sau Judges and prosecuting officer, while the said Fickea Is unrestrained of bis liberty, refilling sugar at a vast profit to himself; and is daily practising with the pistol at a wooden effigy of a small boy, aet up in hU back yard and appropriately labelled -reum i-s 01 I'ennsvlViinla." V our petitioner therefore beseecheth that relief which Is his due under the precedent estiMlsh d by jour Excellency In the case of the said Richard j. ncktn, and he further snnwetn that, miles a pardon be extended to him. great scandal and ID- fame may be raised against yeur Excellency, your t etttlontT fearing tbat mailt Ions people will say and aver that your Excellency sells pardons thro jgh the said Pardcn Hhoeeks. to wit, William B. Mann and Lewis C. Cassldy, to rich men like Flcken, and re fuse ta grant t hem to poor men like your petitioner. That thi re may not be one law for the Null :inl another for the poor, your petitioner hu-ubly be seechcth for Executive clemmey. And your pe titioner will ever rray. Frank McOauohkai, March 4, 18T1.
