THE PRISON MIRROR. for the past three
years. 1t has now started out upon its fourth
year of doing good It was conceived by
an inmate, purchased with the money of
inmates. published by inmates, and the
matter is furnished by the inmates, and is
great credit to them. Its mission has been
two-fold, and it's success many fold. Born
within the prison walls. it has gone forth
each week to shed its pure light, and win
name worthy of the best. Through this
medium the thoughts of those deprived of
liberty have found vent. and gone out to be
transplanted in other minds whose ref1ec-
tons have been cast in other channels. and
whose thoughts seldom turned to the criminal
and his lonely lot. Two of it's editors have
been pardOned. Of the fifteen men who first
were share holders. but five remain in
prison. Of the others three were pardOned,
and three have died. Only one of the re-
naming four are known to be in prison
again. -MOntevideo Leader.
