Sheriff Gray brought Alva Upper back
with him when he returned from below.
Upper is the fellow who broke out Of the
old Jail here in 1852. He was then under
indictment for robbIng sheep camps and
other misdemeanors, and after escaping
from here he went to California and served
term at San Quentin for stealing when he
was released and came to Oregon. Mr..
Gray heard of him at McMinnvillc, where
he was to have been married soon. Instead
of being married he came home with the
sheriff to answer to the old indictment, and
is he escapes from the present jail will have
to exert himself little more than he did
board then.
