FORGOTTENFOR Is
LONG YEARS IN PRISON

TOPEKA. Kan, Nov. 80 - John
Dodd, who once declared while a
convict in the Kansas state prison
that his sentiment had died because
he had no friends, went back to a
farm recently to begin life anew.
For fourteen years Dodd had been
in the prison. Most of this time he
worked in the state mine and got
his only glimpse of sunshine on his
way to and from the shaft. Then
a society for the aid of friendless
prisoners found him and Governor
Stubs was induced to give the man
a parole.
Dodd was sentenced to life i'm
prisonment fer killing two negroes.
Thirteen years he remained in
prison without receiving a message
from the outside world. At last he
decided he had been entirely for
gotten, and, when he was assigned
to keep bright the face of woman
carved in stone or a wall OF the
mine. he refused to do the work,
saying:
Let these who have sentiment do
that sort of thing. | have none.
1t died within me when l was for
gotten in prison
The story of his remark leaked
out, and eventually resulted in his
parole

John D. Rockefeller on the seth an

Mr. Rockefeller, having received an
increase in pay to s25 month at
the end of his year as a bCokkeeper

saved he engaged in the commits
sion business with NJ. b. Clark. an
Englishman, forming the firm OF
Clark & Rockefeller At the age of
80 he had accumulated $1,000.

the porter, became interested in his
stories and eventually entered the
oil refining business on the Mississ-
ippi river above St. Louis, under the
firm name of Andrew. Clark &
Co. 1t was not long before Mr.
Rockefeller began to broaden the
business personally. one of his first
moves being to gain an investment
of 100000 from Henry NJ. Flagler.
