Negro Sentenced
To Die In Chair;
Confession Read
Gallup, N. M Feb. 21 HH
Louis Young, 44-year-old negro
convict, today was sentenced to
die in the electric chair April 23
for the knife-slaying in Santa Fe
last November of Pretty Mrs.
Eloise Kennedy.
At the end of one of the short
est murder trials in New. Mexico
court history, a 12-man Jury early
today ended two hours of delibera
tion with announcement that
Young was guilty of first degree
murder. He was charged with
killing Mrs. Kennedy, a former
Denver socialite, with thrusts of
a kutcher. knife in the bathroom
of her fashionable apartment. .
Young burst into a negro spirit
ual as he was led from the court
room after hearing his ; death
sentence. Officers restrained sob
bing Leon G. Kennedy, Jr., Santa
Fe bank employe and husband of
the slain young mother, as he
lunged toward the retreating fig
ure. No Clemency Suggested
The Jury made no recommenda
tion for clemency. Judge Wil
liam A. Barker, who ordered the
trial held here rather than at
Santa Fe, set the execution date
after asking Young if he would
care to make a statement.
The negro rose to his feet and
said:"MI am here to suffer a' pen
alty. -I am not guilty. You will
find in the bible that all vengeance
belongs to God."
Young, a trusty prisoner at New
Mexico state penitentiary, then
complained that he had been de
nied an opportunity to .defend
Himself, but thanked the court
appointed defense attorneys,
Fletcher Catron and Frank An
