PRISONERS THANKSGIVING
The little prisoner spent the day in her
room in the jail. 1t had been slightly re-
arranged and during the greater portion
Of the DAY she had visitors. The mem
bers Of the family were present the most

displayed to indicate that the little pris-

BIorrison's appearance to denote that she
was at all concerned about the outcome
Of the trial The dinner was served in
the room at the Jail and was very appe-
thing. Whether it tasted as good as on
former occasions could not be told, but
it was evidently much enjoyed by Miss
Morrison. Others Of the family We're
with her at the time and the CONVERSE

case now on.
The members of the family stayed
greater part of the afternoon. Fletcher
Morrison was in the room the first part
OF the afternoon and went out about 3
o'clock. He returned and paid his sister
a visit after supper. Miss Morrison did
not read much yesterday. She did not
have time for that. however for her
time was occupied by the visitors. and
those visitors were far more pleasant to
her than the mere reading of books or
papers.
