    Pastor of a church in Kansas City. Was accused of murder & being engaged to three women at once! query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9F06E2DD1539E333A... Sentenced to death in the murder of Avis Linnell: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B00EEDB153CE633A...
  • lmharnisch said:
    The photo title is mislabeled. It is the Rev. Clarence Virgil Richeson. He was executed May 21, 1912, for poisoning Avis Linnell, a former fiancee who was pregnant, according to news accounts.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks both captainslack and lmharnisch! We'll fix the title in the source data and reload the description.

    Parke was born in 1857 at Clogher House[2] in Kilmore, County Roscommon, Ireland, and was brought up in Carrick-on-Shannon, County Leitrim. He graduated from the College of Surgeons in Dublin and was appointed to a post in Ballybay, County Monaghan. In 1881 he joined the British Army and served in Egypt[1] as a surgeon. Parke fought to Khartoum in relief of General Gordon in 1885 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Heazle_Parke
  • DannyM8 said:
    Parke campaigned with Henry Morton Stanley on the Emin Pasha Relief Expedition. This expedition lasted three years and many were saved from death by Parke's courage and medical skills. He was known as the ' man who had saved Stanley'.[3] He thus became the first Irishman to cross the African continent. During the expedition Parke bought a pygmy girl. They travelled together for over a year and she nursed him through malaria. In the end he was forced to leave her behind because her eyes could not adapt to sunlight after the darkness of the forest. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Heazle_Parke
