fRO.V PRISON TO LIBERT n.

Some thirty years ago one Thomas Thor
was convicted of murder, and sentenced tC
| death and TO hard labor in the States Prison
at Thomaston until the time of his execution.
A few weeks ago he was pardoned. During
a short interview with Mr.. Rice, we were Gu
rous to know how he was impressed with the
outside world after having been shut up for
nearly whole generation.
Mr.. Rice says that although man of fifty.
he was really in character and maturity OF
mind only n boy OF fifteen. On his release
the warden took him from Thomaston to
Rockland, distance of only four miles, in a
buggy. As Thorn rode along his first in-
pressi0ns were that the distance between the
two places was immense, and that the time
occupied in the journey was very long.
What to an every day traveller would seem
but few rods, appeared TO him miles.
| On eaching Rockland he stood up in the
buggy and looked around in amazement. Be
fore his imprisonment, thirty years ago he had

hewildcrment: why it looks just like New
York. (When boy he had been to New
York in coaster
The citizens of Rockland made up purse
of fifty dollars, and in his childlike glee he
was telling everybody of his good fortune.
Seeing his impruderce and that there were
those that might relieve him of his treasure,
Mrs. Rice warned him that he should say moth
ing about his money as there were thieves and
pick pockets in the world now. 'Oh, don't
you be afraid, Mrs. Rice" exclaimed the ex-
prisoned; I've Travelled know thing
or two about the world. See here. I've got
my money hid in this back pocket under my
coat. Nobody would ever think of looking
here for it," Thus he had unconsciously in
