State Prison at Folsom, and sentenced tC
nine months in the County Jail, made good
his escape from that institution yesterday

disclosed the fact that he had scaled the
walls, and taken with him an AK, the prop
erty of the county. He had torn brace
from the woodsLed, and placing il against
the wall, climbed 10 the top, and jumped
off on the grass plot east of the Hall OF

think that he could not have effected an
escape without assistance; that he could
not have removed the brace referred to
without the aid OF at least TWO other per
sons. Two other TRUSTEES, whom IL is
thought aided Griffin in his escape, and
whose terms OF Imprisonment have almost
expired are suspected and have been
locked up in their cells and put on the
usual bread and water allowance. Griffin
evidently was averse 10 confinement, placed
but little confidence in habeas corpus writs,

Skinned out on his own hook, and Is now q
free man, under no obligation 10 a lawyer
for his freedom.
