Lynn, i. R. \d. , etc. This man was guilty of a dreadful murder in the Whaddon Chase, but was acquitted on the ground of insanity, and ATTEMPTED ESCAPES. 121 eventually died in the prison, where he was always considered perfectly sane.
When I was a very little boy I remember being taken into the gaol to see some condemned criminals, accom- panying my father and several of his friends. We visited Banks and the two Cribbs, under sentence of death for horse-stealing ; they were heavily ironed with... chains round their ankles, tied up to their waists with a handkerchief. They were notorious thieves, the first of whom acknowledged that he had stolen ninety-nine horses at various times. They were confined in the Old Gaol, the sleeping-cells of which were under the floor of the Assize Courts. These men effected their escape from prison in a very remarkable manner. By some means they possessed themselves of a piece of iron hoop, which they had notched and transformed into a sort of saw ; with this and a pocket-knife they managed to peck down the ceiling of their dormitories, and carried away the dislodged plaster in their handkerchiefs each morning and threw it down the drains ; they then sawed through the beams and rafters overhead, using great labour and perseverance until they managed to saw through the flooring and obtained an entrance to the Assize Court.
