Others pre- fer to play the stock market. As for Sir Albert Ball, business man and cap- dtalist of Nottingham, he is not averse to taking an occasional flyer in prisons. The. other day Sir Albert bought an old one, the prison built at Derby, back in 1826 at a cost of approximately $1,625,000. When people expressed sur- prise, he said: “It is valuable property. With very little alteration the prison could be made into a fine factory or engineering works.
