MIR. Griffin Doing Well.

In order to prevent more disas-
trous consequences from the clog
ging of the large artery of the low
er portion of his left leg, Mr.. G. A.
Griffin's left leg was amputated
just above the knee Thursday in the
Columbia hospital. He rallied. at once
from the operation and has been
doing nicely ever since. The attend
ing physicians have stated that he
will probably be able to come home
in about ten days from this Time.
While Mr.. Griffin's friends greatly
deplore his misfortune in having to
undergo such an operation, yet they
rejoice that his life has been saved.
At one time his Edgefield friends
were deeply solicitous lest the
trouble which seized him SO sudden
ly prove fatal.

Old Jail Again Proves Insecure

Fortunately for Edgefield county,
and especially TO, the sheriff and
%jailor, very few persons charged with
crime are placed in the Edgefield
jail, and practically none of a dam
gerous or vicious type. If there were
any of this type, they would have to
be taken to the ~penitentiary not for
safety but for safe keeping. Edge
fields old prison shack has not a
modern steel cell in it, and it has
been proven over and over. again
here and elsewhere that prisoners
can make their escape when
only brick and mortar stand between
them and liberty.
Wednesday night sometime be-
tween dusk and dawn the only two
prisoners in the jail, a negro and a
white man, escaped. Both were on
the third floor locked in separate
cells. The negro used some disin-
fecting material in his cell to burn
the wood that held the iron bars
over his cell door, having made his
way from his cell, he used the bar
to prize open the door of the white
mans cell, and then both of them to-
gether removed a sufficient num-
Der of brick beneath one of the win
dows on the third floor to make their
escape, swinging from the third floor
to the ground by means of blankets
tied together. Neither have been
heard from since they made their
escape. The negro, Charles Bell, was
under Indictment for breaking in a
store in the Phillip section and the
white man, Tom Hayes, was charged
with breaking in stores at Trenton
early in the year.
