Visiting a prison like this one with all the details gives us a glimpse into another part of life for so many. I wonder how many guilty ones got away, and how many got locked up on trumped up evidence! Those cells look really depressing.Linda Gartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00740477693031139484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4369519054620493278.post-72056858998045242072011-03-06T10:37:56.058-05:002011-03-06T10:37:56.058-05:00Carol,

The list of crimes is fascinating, particularly Liquor to Indians, Polygamy, Adultery, Seduction, and Prize Fighting. Also, 30 women prisoners; I would never have imagined they would make up such a large percentage of the prison population. I'm just imagining the history behind those lists. Going to have to add this place to my bucket list. Thanks for sharing this.<br /><br />Cheers, JenniferÉire Historianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04588116386284997687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4369519054620493278.post-23042310002979430472011-03-06T08:43:24.458-05:002011-03-06T08:43:24.458-05:00It looks like a very scary place!
