Escape of Mighty Mike
From an Anamosa gentlemen, we learn that the notorious desperado, so well-known in Dubuque, Mighty Mike, succeeded in making his escape from that penitentiary on Monday night last, by forcing the cell door, overpowering the guard, and jumping through a window eighteen feet from the ground. The alarm a spread at once and the country a scoured, but without success
