Their efforts were foiled last night when deputy sher iffs, led by Deputy Jim Hil ton, discovered hack saw and jagged case knives which the prisoners had been using to saw jail bars and bore their way through the will. Late last week the county jailer became cognizant of the effort of prisoners to break their way out of jail.
