The prisoners participating in the affair were w. G. Mize, Oscar Megeson and Albert Donaldson.

 Just as Mir. Simmons opened the cell door the three men grabbed him and threw him into the cell, throwing the bolts after taking his keys from him, then running down stairs. A negro, Dave Harris, immediately released MT. Simmons from the cell, and he reach ed the outer door while the prisoners were unlocking it. He held them up with a pocket knife and again locked them into their cells. In getting down the concrete stairs Mir. Simmons foot slipped and he slid most of the way down, and is consequently complain ing little of two skinned hips.
