PRISONERS THANKSGIVING
AN EPlsTlE WRITTEN BY ONE
IN JAIL ON THANKS.
GIVING DAY.

While others were enjoying a
Thanksgiving feast on 'ast Thursday
the poor unfortunte inmates in the
Jail were also enjoying rare
feast of Thanksgiving turkey and
other god things to eat.
One of the inmates OF the prison
has written the following letter that
those who are unfortunate enough TO
be incarcerated may let the outside
world know about how they are
treated:
There was no cause why the In.
mates OF the big Jail should not
feel the spirit of thanksgiving
Through the kindness of Jailer Mich
OILS we were given most appetizing
dinner of turkey, turkey Crossing,
cranberry sauce and celery. The din.
ner was served in n way which to
many brought back memories of 9th.
er happier Thanksgivings spent at
home with loved ones. The day was
an unusually quiet one. Tho magic
word Thanksgiving seemed to have
cast It's spell over each and every
man. and there is not one within the
walls who cannot find many things
for which to be thankful. Some un.
seen power seems to urge one TO
give thanks 20 Him TO whom all
praise and glory Is due. We thank
Him for His word which He has
given to cheer and comfort us in
the darkest hour and who could be.
though in prison. so destitute of
feeling that they would not he

thankful that some day We will he
at liberty TO take our places as cit.
liens OF state of so many possi.
biiitics, and when We attempt to emu.
merate the things for which we are
thankful 1t is then We listen with
more patience TO the still small voice
which so constantly bids us serve
