vaulted chamber, the natural tenn
perature of which is about 40 degrees.

the rock to this chamber, thru which
food and drink are passed. Electric
wires and small electric light bulb
have also been passed through the
pipe. The men have plenty Of fresh
air, plenty of food and drink, tobacco
and matches and light. 1t may be

them. In the meantime the prisoners

or trying to start EN- on cold morn

midnight, no fuss, no bother. Grub
