from camp, 50 ne walked out
caught the gang mule and rode
oil. While he was pay ing his &c
spects to the woman the mule
broke loose and ran off loosing
the bride, 50 Joe walks up to Mr..
|. Z. Adams lot and gets another
bride, returning to camp Just
before daylight.
When the gang wa first started
it WIS looked upon as Il place Of
punishment but now it seems
quite pleasant piaca.
The poor mule has done nothing
to be on the gang, and it is simply
inhuman to have it work day and
night. The mule was taken away
and returned with a strange brI-
die but still our efficient overseer
knew nothing about it. Why
don't the county buy fine Talaho
and send its prisoners out spark

Who is to blame for all this
slack work? Why doesn't the
County Supervisor investigate and
see what is wrong?
Why was the negro not locked
up as prisoners should be?
