Charles Wilson, colored, who broke
Jail here with three other negroes
several months ago, and Harry Will
Jams, member of the gang of nine
prisoners who broke Jail few weeks
ago, were all given sentences in
Jail, by Squire George w. Patton
Monday. The charge against them
was that of being party to the de-
livery in each instance. Williams con-
fessed and was given five months in
Jail; Wilson refused to confess and
was given seven months. Williams
made clean breast of the whole
affair. He stated the saws were got
tenn to them by some one from the
outside, who pitched them through
the bars of the window. The first
effort of the party outside was un-
successful, according to Williams, the
bundle of saws striking the bars and
falling back to the ground. He stated
the party who g,t the saws to thr
prisoners committed the act about
dark on the night previous to the de-
, livery.
