How I envy him, But I'll be free, too, in a little bit. “Guess I'll go out to Colorado this lsummer for a fishing trip. There’s plenty of mountain trout out there.

I've had my eye on a new kind of |sedan car that you can make up into a Pullman berth at night.” | Shepherd, because of his diabetic | condition, is not forced to the same jroutine as other prisoners. But he not granted any special favors. He is kept in what is called the an- nex of the jail. He had on a bluish jsort of suit which was baggy and ‘badly in need of pressing. His face had a haggard, worn look. But his “shoes were shined and his tie was in place were dirty and his hair could have stood # brush. Glancing up I saw a fat cockroach prowling through the dust. The in- sect missed its footing and clung perilously. “Look out!” I shouted. Shepherd ducked just in time. The roach crashed down beside him, stun- ned,\on the cement floor. The man's eye dilated. laughed, Wears Silky Pajamas As soon as he gets up in the morn- ing he puts on his house slippers jand sits up in bed in his silky pa- jamas to eat breakfast.

Finds Limburger Has Kick Shepherd eats his evening meal with the guards. I saw him bend over with glee written on his face when they brought in a big bologna sausage about two feet long, a square of butter and a pound of limburger cheese. Shepherd cracked some jokes about the limburger cheese and fell to with a relish. “That stuff has kick,” one of the guards said. “Yes, It'll make a mule out of you,” Shepherd said and laughed. But no one laughed with him. At 9:30 he has a pot of tea and by 11 he is in bed. At this hour all the cells are locked. I bid goodnight to him just before the final hour. I was in only for a day and he— “I'll be out by summer and get some of those speckled dandies out in Colorado,” he shouted.
