was established the prison was mined :;
200 kegs Of powder we're placed under it,
and every preparation made to blow the
prisoners into eternity. Ignorant that the
prison was mined, plan was formed to
attempt te join our forces when they should
enter the city.

verse.

in cells and fed only on corn paste and

his wife managed to convey him full as

Thus disguised, he passed out Of the Bar

made his escape, but for the, for him, Un-
fortunate circumstance Of meeting keen

who at once saw through the fellows dis.
