DO you remember the old Washington
infirmary, which stood behind the
courthouse? Well, that was the Jail
in old times-froIn 1904 TO 1898. In
those days there was imprisonment for
debt, ard quite handsome young man,
unable to meet his obligations, became
n prisoner. The jailer lived in part of
the building. and his family included
a pretty daughter. Cupid set to work,
and the bars were no obstacle. In a
little while looks betrayed Cupid's con-
quest. One day, while on the street.
debtors being allowed to go outside,
but not beyond the prison bounds
they met, had a talk which ended in
the procurement of Il marriage license.

telling what they had done, the father
gave the son-in-law job as assistant
jailer, thus enabling him to pay the
debt, and when he died the son sue
