Two Prisoners Flee Tennessee Penitentiary by Wire Escape
Two convicts at the Tennessee penitentiary devised a daring escape by sliding two telephone wires from a three story building to outside the high walls. They climbed to the roof aided by pulleys and bridling fiber, rode the wires bicycle fashion to escape about fifteen feet over the wall, but guards were not alerted immediately. The alarm soon followed as blood tracks marked the mud, and the pair were pursued and captured five miles away. Both men are burglars serving twenty years on ten cases.
