How Bold Convict Escaped from a South
ern Indiana Prison.

eru bneihuH Hrlsous
Of the many notable escapes from
tho Southern Indiana Penitentiary, the
one that required the most nerve and
almost total disregard Of fear was that
of William O'Connell, n young irish
man. Captain David Allen, an ex-
prison oilicil, in speaking Of the mat
ter last nig..,, said: "He is the bravest
man I ever knew, and certainly de-
serves his liberty, even If he didn't get
it."
The escape occurred about sixteen
months ago. O'Conncll worked in the
shoe shop under Guard james Ken
nedy. In order that the reader may
fully understand the perils Of the at
tempt, it will be necessary to givo a
short description of the place where 1t
was made. The chapel is back build
ing in the center of the inclosure. 1t
is three stories high and one side win
dow is nearly fifty feet from the ground.
About three and half feet to the right
of the window is q small projecting
stone, about two feet square. Once on it,
it would be easy for one to make his way
to the roof of the guard-house. When
they were building the chapel Captain
Allen looked out of this window, and
suggested jokingly that a man might
jump from the window to the projec-
ton and escape, but he shuddered rs
he looked down ut the ground and
thought of the awful peril that woult
attend such an attempt. Not one mar
in a thousand, was the unanimous de
cision. would try such foolhardy
thing.
OConnell, however. had nerve. HI
had hidden suit of clothes in thu
chapel, and one day just after dinner
he deserted his post in the shoe-shol
when Mr.. Kennedy's back was turned
and secretly going to the chapel, dis
carded his convict clothing and arrayet
himself in citizens attire. Then h,
lowered the window from the top ant
climbed out on the sill. 1t was rainin!
hard, and the projecting rock was yer.
slippery. Steadying himself, he mad
the leap.
1t must have been terrible momen
for him, and he knew that the slightes
mistake would cause him to fall tift,
feet and be mashed to death on tn
jagged curbing of the pavement below
But he landed safely on the projection
and then carefully made his way to til
roof of the guard-house. Here Ii
raised the skylight and went down int
the guard-room through Il small stail
way.
Walking boldly out into the hall, h
ran the gauntlet of dozen pairs of til
sharpest eyes in the State and was Il
liberty. Then he sauntered out on til
street into the city. A few days late
he was captured at Memphis, littl
town about twenty-three miles fror
Jeffersonville, and is now serving OF
his time in the prison. "O'Connell'
Leap" is story that has been told an
retold hundreds of times by the cor
victs to the newcomers.-L
