A strange bird will be brought in who protests his innocence Justify. close watch is kept on him, as his past is not known. The first morning he awakens in prison, if he be an old-timer, he will get up and fold his bed away nine times out of ten in a fashion that proves his experience in the coop. If he does not do this he invariably will fall into line in the procession and do the lockstep in manner that gives his game away.
