Dead In Search For
Escaped convicts

scrawled message on a wilderness

DEAD,” lead three fugitives back
to jail here yesterday.

The fugitives, meanwhile, had
taken to the mosquito-infested

taken. Two of them were without
shirts. The other had no pants.

burglary charges and Morris Al
bert awaiting trial on forgery and
other charges. It was the second
escape and re-capture within a
week for the first two.
Whisler’s crashed plane was
found in the river.
