The fugitive secreted himself in a packing box, was nailed up inside and rode out on a four-horse truck through the famous "South Gate" of the prison. He took the same route that Thomas Murray, a daring crook, took when he escaped, nailed up in a laundry case. on May 27, 1897. Imprisoned old-timers smiled as they looked on. They found the scene interesting and in structive. Warden Lewis E. Lawes permitted Director Forman to stage the scene at Sing Sing, but was extra cautious to see that no genuine convict was tempted to depart with the players. The "prisoner" wa3 hidden inside the big packing case inside the prison and then, as the gate was opened to let the truck drive out, rode to freedom in the case. The truck drove to the Ossining freight station, with the cam era clicking behind it, and there the "fugitive" got out of the box and made his "getaway" with the camera photo graphing the feat. .
