James Murray, prisoners in the Buchanan
county jail. wrecked the rear wall OF the
building with a charge of dynamite They
made a fierce fight for liberty, but the
guards held them back with Winchesters.
Seventy-f1ve prisoners are confined in the
Jail, but many of them made no effort to
escape and those who did try to follow
Blade and his companions were dubbed
into submission. No one was injured al
though the explosion was felt for several
blocks away and every window in the
courthouse on the side next TO the jail was
shattered.
Blade and Allen are under sentence for
highway robbery and Murray is a govern
ment prisoner. They are now chained face
foremost TO the floors of their cells. Other
prisoners were informed OF what was to
happen about five minutes before the fuse
they sought safety i'm their cells just be-
al dinner in another part of the building.
Charles May, who has three times been
under sentence of death. and who has each
time escaped by some technicality, de-
clined to take part in the plot, although he
admits that he knew of it, The damage to
the jail and courthouse is estimated at
81 500 and until repairs can be made a
large armed guard will be necessary to
restrain the prisoners.
