FEDERAL PRISON Man Sentenced from Ju- neau, for Murder, Is Wedded to Mrs. Jones The “marriage” of Mrs. Della May Jones, Kansas City, and Rob- ert Stroud, canary raising inmate of” the Federal prison at Leaven- worth, Kansas, is now a matter of official record. Mrs. Jones, who only three years ago came into the life of the des- perado who has been in solitary confinement 17 years, filed with the registrar of deeds at Leaven- worth, a marriage agreement be- tween Stroud and herself. Mrs. Jones was given power of attorney by Stroud three years ago to market the canaries he raises in his cell. Stroud was sent to McNeil Is- land for a slaying at Juneau, Al- aska. While on the Island, he at- tacked a guard and was moved here. Still violent, he killed a guard with an ice pick and was under sentence to hang until his mother induced President Wood- row Wilson to commute the sen- tence to life in solitary confine- ment. —————————— FRANK A.
