layer logs foot thick on a founda-
ton Of brick and cement, layer of
oak plank three inches thick across
the logs, and then a pine floor inch
and half thick on top of all that
They were supplied with an auger
and chisel, supposed to have been
furnished them by Pickett's wife.
They made q hole under the floor and
wall OF the cell by boring through the
two layers of plank to the logs, which
were rotten and easily torn away,
and then dug out by tearing up the
brick foundation. They made their
escape sometime in the early part
of Sunday night. Pickett left the
following note in the cell, addressed
to the sheriff:

any longer. I hay not dun any thing
to be punished for. Blame no one
