CONVICTS STRANGE

STORY

DEVIL'S ISLAND

CAPTIVE

Bordeaux. A strange battle for freedom, which took him over 10,000 miles, has been related to his final captors by a convict who escaped from Davil's Island.

Victor Garder has arrived under close guard here all the way from French West Africa to be tried for a crime committed in Portugal four years ago.

Daring escapes into the "green holl" of South Amorica and the jungles of French and Portuguese West Africa, five years of bandi- try, wandering ten thousand miles through three continents were described by the prisoner.

Condemned In France in 1928 to twenty years In French Guiana, for attempted murder, Garder oscaped within a few months into the dangerous jungles known as the green hell. After terrible hardships he reached civilisation living a hand to mouth existence in South America, finally working his passage to Portugal. There he carried out a sensational burglary of a smart Lisbon Joweller's shop. He was sentenced to eight yeara

in the Portugucas penal Camp

at St. Paul of Loanda, in Augola,

Ho escaped into the African

jungle four days after his arrival.

Gardor was caught again by the French police at Matadi, French West Africa, and promptly found means to escape once more. Cornered Anally ht Brazeiville, he has now been sent here to stand his trial for the jowel robbery at Lisbon, for which he has already been sontonced. But since French citizen cannot be extradit- ed from French territory, It pears that this is the only proce- dure by which he can be dealt with. A Bordeaux jury will therefore hear evidence about the crime committed in Liabon.- Reuter.
