was among the very first in the state
IL not the first to establish this form
Of education, has been working all
winter with his Sthool. and he has
IL down to such system now that
practically every inmate can read
and write. The jailer, with the help
OF Mrs. Cora Wilson Stewart and
the Kentucky Illfteracy Society has
kept his school going with splendid
success. yet he has been hlndered in
his work by the expiration Of the
time OF some OF his very best teachers.
Ee has spent much time acting as
teacher himself. Many prisoners SIT
up far into the night, burning the mid
night oil. II seems that the foreign
prisoners are among the most inter-
ested.
