LAST OF PRISON
I
Portland, Ore., Aug. 25. VP)
An all-night chase of an auto
mobile thief ended today in the
capture of Kenneth Lloyd
Hougham, 19, third of three con
victs who escaped from a state
prison farm Saturday.
Two special officers and
shipyards' guard caught him in
thicket in the north end of
Portland after he had abandoned
the fifth automobile he had
stolen during the night, Sergt
Dell Holland of Portland's No.
1 precinct reported. He offered
no resistance.
It turned out to be the es
caped convict. Hougham said
he had been "on the run" since
he, James Q. Anderson, 19, and
Charles Melvin Carmichael, 19,
fled from the prison flax farm
Saturday. The other two
escapees were captured the same
day.
Hougham, badly disheveled,
said he hadn't eaten anything
and had slept very little since
Friday night.
"I'm glad it Is all over," he
' told his captors.
