The E'0wcrOG Money

Cadwallader Wallace, the son of veal
thy parents, some time since, at the re-
quest of noted courtezan, deliberately
shot and killed, without the pretense ola
provocation, man named Godfrey, in the
streets of ChiIicothe. For this he was
confined in the Jail of that city awaiting
his tlial.
The murderer, however, has escaped,
and, from the circumstances, the unchar-
table think if he had been "poor deviP'
he might have remained and been tried and
hung.
The circumstances, as told by the jailor,
are these: On that particular night the
jailor and his wife were away ata wedding
party and did not return until very late.
BY the merest accident in the world the
jailor forgot TO shut the outside doors of
the building when he left, but put the
jail in charge of a servant girl! About
nine o'clock two tall men, with black
whiskers, came into her room, took her by
the ann, led herup stairs, and tied hand
kerchief over her eyes! and then locked
her in the room, and let the prisoner out"
Of course the girl could not make noise
SO as to alarm any one until she could get
the handkerchief of her eyes! and it took
her just tscO hours to take off the blindfold,
although Ter hands were not tied, nor she
in any way hurt.
When she got her eyes relea ed of course
she raised an alarm, but the prisoner had
then been gone two hours, and has not
since been retaken. A reward of $500
is offered for his apprehension. How the
liLerator found the key is not explained!
