The Horace Bell Case In The Newspaper

Source
Los Angeles Star, vol. 8, no. 31, December 11, 1858

"The prisoners were still secure, but the minute men who had been drafted into service to protect the jail against expected onslaught, believed that their work was about done, and had relaxed their vigilance."

"There was a friend of the Bells who was a relative of the jailer's wife. He paid a visit to the family of the jailer about this time, and remained for a week. At the end of the period he returned to the Indiana side of the river to bid his friend, Horace Bell, good-by, before the latter should return to California."

"During his visit the young man had learned where the keys to the jail were kept, and he had brought away with him some other valuable information that was imparted to Horace Bell and Walter Gresham, as the three friends stood near the bank of the river one cloudy night and laid some daring plans. But not under the shadow of darkness was the work of rescue to be done."
