CONVICT FINDS A FRIEND
THROUGH NOTE IN BOTTLE.
Message AHoat Two Years Drifts
Ashore On California Prison
Beach,

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. IL
Through the fundamentally of a bot
tied message that drifted In from the
sea, William Owens, a life convict at
San Quentin Prison, has made a
friend who is trying to induce Gov.
Gillett to issue pardon.
On the Fourth of July outing in
1908, William j. Ahern, editor of the
Coast Shoe Reporter, wrote on his
card: Good luck to the finder" and
placed the card In a bottle, which he
tossed into the ocean. A short time
ago this bottle, after over two years
among the waves, was washed onto
the prison beach where Owens was
working. He opened 1t and wrote to
Ahern.
Impressed by the circumstances,
Ahern Is now trying to obtain a par
don for Owens, who was sentenced
from Mendicino County for compiled
ty in murder. He says the jury
disagreed on his first trial and he
then accepted a suggestion to plead
guilty and take a light sentence In
stead of light sentence he was CIV
