Fearful search for deputies after prison break
In Kokomo Indiana on February 19 a search of two quarries failed to locate Deputy Sheriffs John P. Greve and Wallace McClure who vanished Tuesday with two escaping prisoners Samuel Baxter and John Burne. A letter claimed the deputies were warned they faced harm and a trail of footprints and frozen ponds yielded no clues. A cuff link found in Chicago fed fears the prisoners secured their freedom and the deputies were believed missing near Pendleton and Danville.
