Father E. J. Flanagan, head of
a Nebraska boys' home, to obtain

Tha governor! final decision
In tha Niccolls case waa made
public In a letter replying to
Father Flanagan'a personal and
written appeala for removal of
Herbert from the state peniten
tiary at Walla Walla to his In
stitution at Omaha. Tha letter
waa based on the results of an
executive Investigation the gov
ernor promised Father Flanagan
he would make after a conference

Father Flanagan'a request waa

Sheriff Wormell aa the officer
caught htm in tha act of robblag
an Asotin atora, to be removed

would be tantamount to giving
him complete release.
"Apparently many persona do

governor wrote. "If his rela

or wished to take him to aome
other state there would be no
legal obstacles to overcome.
Legal authority over the boy
could not be vested in yoa or
any other agency outside of this
suite by executive action."
Tha letter assured Father
