HUNDREDS OF SPECTATORS Mutual Welfare League Confers Degree of 'Doctor of Humanity' on Returning Warden. CONVICTS' CARNIVAL WELCOMES OSBORNE With a fancy dress parade, followed by solemn exercises by the prisoners of Sing Sing Prison, Thomas Mott Osborne was welcomed back today as Warden, after defeating the attempt to oust him by winning a jury's acquittal on one charge and obtaining a victory in the preliminary proceedings before a court on the other.

    Sounds like quite an event. Lots more about Osborne at Warden T.M. Osborne, Sing Sing (LOC)
  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks swanq, we'll include Mr. Osborne's full name as well as the event. The Library has a photo of Osborne demonstrating an old form of punishment, the head cage at www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2002712538/.
