be kept in ignorance because of

Escape Used to Discredit System.
Then, in June of that same
year, when hfer named Spence
escaped from the prison, the
newspapers seized upon the occur
renee to further discredit the adj
ministration at Sing Sing. Spence,
q member of the Mutual Welfare
League, was janitor for the prison
chapel. tt was his duty to re-
main in that building to clean up
and get the place fit after each
gathering OF the prisoners. This
applied when the chapel was used
at night as well as by day. Spence

or two after lectures or picture
shows or at any other time when
the chapel was used at night.
Inasmuch as the chapel was in
almost continuous use under the
Osborne regime-school classes in
the mornings, court in the after
Moons, relaxations at night
Spence was by himself up there

chapel as usual. following q pic

the landing OF the back stairway

ture large enough for him to
squeeze through.
Failure to Report Leads to
Inquiries.
This window was about fifteen
feet from the ground and faced
west toward the river. Between
that window and the twelve-foot
spiked iron picket fence that par
alleled the river shore was an
open space of about 100 feet. The
north and south sides Of the
prison walls were enclosed by
high walls ending in stockades
that ran far out into the water.
The picket fence connecting
these two walls had been built
90 that the river and the distant
farther shore might not be cut off,
thus affording more air and aid.

place, il the word comfort" is
admissible at all.
In the day time guards patroled
the river front, but at night there
was only one guard there, with
an extended beat to cover. BY
watching his chance. after drop
ming from the window, Spence
must have scaled that twelve-foot
fence and made his way out into
the river and around the end Of
the stockade. His absence was not
noted until after midnight, when,
on his failure to report to his cell,
an investigation disclosed the
damaged window and his escape.

IT would, too, Bobby. There

We were now in Nebraska, and
as we drove along Bobby looked
across the monotonous plains and
