Conricts Plan to Escape from Penitentiary Cages
Columbus reports a bold escape attempt by inmates Atkinson and ONeill from the state penitentiary. A 15 inch floor hole was found beneath Atkinson's bunk as guards searched the bath house cage. The plan echoed the Civil War era Morgan escape. In Alliance, Rev Welch of Macksburg was tried and found guilty of abandoning pastoral duties and fraudulently obtaining a divorce, leading to his expulsion.
