Not sure if there is another Grace Marks, and we need a fixed link, but more than likely I should just remove the bit about her being a current inmate (near 200 years old). Figured I'd let anyone who may object go right ahead first.

Someone put in a bogus entry about a riot in 1953. There is a lot of misinformation out there in the "This Day in History" sites. I don't trust them. Get corroborating information before entering such dubious claims into an article. I have it from 3 reliable sources that the riot referred to happened in 1954. You need to go directly to archives of newspapers of the day to get the facts. I will try to put something together on this as soon as I can summarize the facts. No baseball game was canceled (that idea was already taken by "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.") However, the riot may have started during a baseball game held in the exercise yard. --

I was able to dig up some newspaper articles on this riot in 1954. I entered the appropriate information and citations to the article. --

Escapes
Two escapes are listed.
If #2 (Ty Conn) was “the first to succeed since 1958” there would seem to have been at least one additional escape between #1 (Red Ryan) in 1923 and #2 (Ty Conn in 1999). — Preceding
