Tucson Prison Escape Shocks Local Officials

The Citizen reports a dramatic jail break in Tucson as nine inmates allegedly escaped with help from inside. Murphy, Moyer, Gibson, Hurley, Morton and others seized a warder, bound him, and unlocked the cell doors using a key from the jail office. They mounted horses near the gas works and rode toward Point of Moon, with Sheriff Ward pursuing. The episode raises questions about jail discipline and premeditation in the escape.

Even at one tenth yield, a twenty acre ranch could support a family in six to seven years.
