Harris alias Peter Hughes alias
Thomas Jones, 60 years old, ex-con-
vict and said to be the Oldest of

$1,000. Detectives say that Haw-
kinson had 81 1900 worth of bonds

In line with the general charac-
teristic of the professional crook,

10 years in the Kansas state prison
for highway robbery and was parol-
ed in 1908.

der the name of Thomas Jones,

Nebraska penitentiary for safe
blowing. He was sent up from

Harris, Hawkinson began a FIVE
year term in the Oregon state
prison for burglary. He was pa
rolled from that place on April II,
1915, records show.
