Found this in the Daily Advocate, Newark, OH, March 14, 1893. Also reported elsewhere.
"Caddo, I.T., March 14-The report of the exectuion of the Indian Loring by shooting, sent out from here Friday was incorrect. All the preparations for the execution were complete and the sheriff told the newspaper men there would be no reprieve. There was then a race of correspondents to get to the telegraph office and while they were on the way, the mounted messanger brought to the sheriff a reprieve for the prisoner. Meantime, however, the story of the execution had gone all over the country and it was not until late in the afternoon that the newspaper men learned that they had been premature in announcing that Loring had been shot." All I had ever seen before was his execution date of March 10. So if that didn't take place, what happened to him? |
