Summary

Text

A few days since Charles Lindauer, who was committed to the Essex county jail, New Jersey, for two years, for passing counterfeit money, was taken to the Fishing Banks on an excursion trip, one of the wardens of the institution being his escort. The Newark (N.J.) Advertiser says that it is not usual to treat prisoners to pleasure excursions, but in this instance an assistant warden thought it would "do the convict good," and therefore ventured to make the experiment. Essex, N.J., is a nice place to go to jail.
