Walks Out of Jail

George E. Stover age about 21 years held in the LaGrange county jail for tre past seven weeks and scheduled to appear in court last Thursday and plead guilty to robbing the Weber and other cottages at Oliver lake failed to live up to his part of the plans made. For two days he had complaineq of being ill. Wednesday night when he was locked in his cell at the jail he said he did not feel well and that if he was not awake when the breakfast was brought up not to awaken him. When breakfast was taken to him Thursday morning he appeared to be asleep and consequently the breakfast was placed at his door and he was not disturbed. However, three or four hours later a jail attendant noticed that Stover was lying in bed just as he had been early in the morning. Alarmed lest the young man had died during the night, the cell was quickly unlocked. It was then found that a pillow had been cleverly placed under the covers and other objects used to make -thei bed look like Stover was peacefully sleeping. . How the cell was unlocked and when Stover got away is a mystery.
