MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP)â
Jimmy Wilson Thursday. lost a
second appeal for his life to the
Alabama Supreme Court, whiÂą
took pains to emphasizé that the
coridemned Negro was convicted
of robbery and not the mere theft
of $1.95. :
The 55-year-old illiterate handy-
manâs petition for rehearing wah.
turned down by the stateâs high-
est court which had upheld the
death sentence last June 12. His
once-postponed execution was re-
set for Oct, 24. :
Wilson was convicted of rob-
bing an 82-year-old white widow,
Mrs. Estelle Barker, of $1.95 at
her home at Mation, Ala., July
27, 1957. The widow told the trial
jury Wilson also choked her, tried
Pha her atid threatened her
life.
Robbery is a capital offence in
âAlabama, punishable by death in
thé electric chair. Wilson was not
indicted for attempted rape,
which carries a maximum of 20
years in prison.
LAST CHANCE {
Barring an altogether mew ap-
peal, the reqnest for rehearing
was Wilsonâs last chance to get a
feversal of his conviction from
the stateâs highest court. But his
life could be spared by the gov-
ernor.
There were indications, too,
that the féderal courts will be
asked to intervene. A Negro law-
yer, Fred Gray of Montgomery,
newly employed to represent the
condemned man, gaid he is ââex-
ploring every possibilityââ to save
Wilsonâs life.
Wilson, who had served two
previous prison terms for theft,
received word of the Supreme
âCourtâs ruling with no showâ of
emotion. ;

original decision, the high court

peal, the reqnest for rehearing
was Wilsonâs last chance to get a
feversal of his conviction from
