Joliet, Illinois, July 5,
1931, Arthur Miller, age 33, holed out of the
Illinois state penitentiary yesterday while serving life for murder.
Miller was a trusty, and alone in the office Warden Henry C.
Hill, he spotted a complete golf outfit belonging to the
warden's son, Phillip. He changed clothes
picked up the bag of clubs and walked out. He successfully
fooled a lot of guards who later explained they thought he was a golfer
who had sliced a shot into the penitentiary grounds. Abstracted from the
Augusta Chronicle.
