ryot the murder at Nieholn 1111111111,.
patient in the Morris Plains liorpitnl For
the inane. by his keepers. William Mack
and HonryConvery. ended In the two In-
(listed men pleading non rnit. They were
untamed to it years in state pl'lilun.
0n the morning at Oct. 13 Sopervism
Janice Coleman found the too keepers
choking and pnmmeling Dollar? In the
ward dining room during the breakfast
hour. He threatened to report them, which
meant a discharge, as their violence was
against the hospital rules. When Colo
men left. the keepers again attacked the
patient. who was an old man. Two hours
later he was toned dead in the bathroom.
and the keepers were washing the body.
Medical Director Evans had the men
reclined, and the coroner at the Inquest
adduced Infilolcm evidence to hoid'Mock
and Convery for the grand jury. The
jury ionnd ntrae bill charging the two
man With murder. 1
The courtroom was crowded to over:
flowing when the court convened, wi1I1
Judge William J. Magic presiding. The
prisoners wore seated back of their coun-
sel, Assistant United States District. At-
torney Thomas J. O'Brien. Both men 1111.
peered to take little more than ordinary
interest in the proceedings. Convory Is
on Englishman. Mack was born in Ire.
land.
Changed Their Plea to Guilty.
Mr. O’Brien said to the court that. his-
clicntc desired to retract their plea of not
guilty and substitute one of guilty at
manslaughter, saying that Prosocuto:
Salmon agreed to this.
The prosecutor said that. the state felt ,
justified. in View"! certain circumstances, l
to accept such a plea. After a consuita
tion of 15 minutes the court declined to
grant such at request on egcouut oi 1111 act
of 1391, which forbids. 1111 also denied
connscl' 11 motion to nollo pros the that
count, charging the prisoners with 111111» ;
dcr.
After a hurried consultation with his ;
clients Mr. O’Brien surprised cvcryhcdy;
by announcing that they would plead 111111
vult and throw themselves upon the merry 1
of the court. This pica was accepted. in l
the afternoon session Mr. O'Brien made a
plea for leniency. lie said that. another :
patient attacked Doliuz after Mack and ,
Couvcry had left. and on their return to
separate the combatants they used the
force which may have resulted in Del-
iuz’e death. He claimed to have ovldonco
to substantiate this statement. This did
not appear at the coroner's inquest. The
prisoners had previously borne cxccliclit
reputations and had never had a charge
against them.
