convict, fled Tuesday from the Polk
County camp and trudged through

Atlanta, a distanece of about 75 miles,
to ask the Prison Commission and
the Governor for a pardon, only to be
recaptured by a citizen Friday just

for twelve years, and he said Friday
he thought this was enough punish
ment for the crime Le had com
mitted—the killing of another negro
man in Dougherty County. Ten years
of this time the convict has been a
trusty. He is 35 years old.
Of late years, Ward bad been long
ing and dreaming of freedom, but
had received no encouragement. Fin
ally, he determined to make a per
sonal plea to the Prison Commission
and the Governor, and Tuesday aft
ernoon slipped away from the camp,
near C(edartown. Without making
any attempt to change his convict
garb, he walked through the coun
try, over hot dusty roads to Atlanta,
sleeping in the woods at night.
As he passed along near the stock
yards, in the outskirts of the city,
Friday, the fugitive convict was spied
by Gus Davijs, a blacksmith, who
halted him.
The negro frankly admitted he was
an escaped convict, told Davis his
purpose in running away and coming
to Atlanta, and offered no resistance
to being arrested. Davis brought the
negro into the city and turned him
over to Jailer J. T. Golden at the
Tower.
