Clyde Mattox Sentenced
Submitted by: Mollie Stehno

July 4, 1895-At Wichita last Thursday Clyde Mattox was sentenced for the fourth time to be hung for the murder of John Mullins, at Oklahoma City in 1889.

The details of his crime, and the strenuous efforts that have been made to save the daring young desperado from the gallows, are well known to our readers. His mother's tireless efforts in his behalf appear to have been of no avail, and her last hope turns upon the clemency of the president.

There is little prospect that he will interfere, and on Friday, October 11, 1895, it is altogether likely tht Clyde will reach the end of the rope for which he appears to have been hung.
