ruary. 1912, under sentence of six years
for forgery in st. Louis
He is the man who planned to shoot
his way OUT and his plan had succeeded
so far that when he was searched by the
officers shortly before Christmas last year
two revolvers of heavy ealibre ana sew
eral hundred rounds of ammunition We're
found, says a jefferson City NJ, special
to the st. Louis Republic
Holt says that he and 0dell became ae-
quainted in the prison. That toward the
latter part of 1912 he received, through
the devious underground route common
to all prisons, a note from Odell asking
for information about automobiles owned
pany. In the note Odell said that he had
discovered a way to get out and asked
Holt to join him
Il am prepared to shoot my way out
was the gist of this part of the note.
Holt thought the matter over and de-
cided to put the officers on the scheme.
BY arrangement with them he sent note
in reply giving the information askql for
and consented to join in the attempt to
escape. The note wos intercepted just
as it reached Odell. When searched the
revolver and ammunition were found.
Both Holt and Odell were placed in SOL
itary confinement, but the former was
discharged In few days.
Believe Others Were Implicated
The officers have always believed that
several other eonviets were implicated
in the plot, but Oden never gave them
away, and Holts information was con-
fined to Odells connection with 1t.
The plan SO far as the officials were
able to figure out was for Odell and fell
low conspirators to seize one of the auto
mobiles OF the Star Clothing company.
