JAIL-BREAK
Prisoners Strive Four
Days to Saw Way
to Freedom
With the doors of the
state penitentiary ever in
their mind's eye, a number
of county prisoners have
during the past four nights
been desperately attempting
to break their way out of the
flimsy enclosure on the roof
of the county court house,
which is called the county ;
jail.
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.
