court had finished its work, so
Solicitor Spears told him that if
he would go to the gang and
work until the next court he
would dismiss the case. The
man had served a few weeks before
his escape. Shackles were
on his legs, but as he was in
poor health he was allowed certain
privileges. In this way he
was able to get out of sight without
suspicion. The country was
pretty thoroughly searched when
his escape was made known but
he was not found.
