He escapted. He is now in the Veterans hospital in Huntington, W.Va with pleurisy maloria and pneumonia. His mate no brief but he promised to send one full particulars. I am writing him tonight and shall ask for any news that you Mr. Carter would be interested in. Sorry that I did not get to see Mr. Carter when I am not there.
