“2 Women Break Out Of Jail,” Montreal Gazette. August 9, 1952. Page 14.

‘Provincial Police, still tied up with the task of keeping male prisoners under control at riot-torn Bordeaux Jail, last night sought two inmates who broke out of the Fullum Street Jail for Women.

Police said the women – Margaret Wheeler, 42, and Sandra Breid, 30 – escape at 9.45 pm from the Protestant section of the prison located at 1730 Fullum street in the city’s east end.

Although Provincial Police would not divulge any details of the break itself, it was learned the women climbed onto the roof of a shed, and from there, scaled the 15-foot wooden fence surrounding the institution.

The double escape was the first in years at the jail, which like Bordeaux, is under the administration of provincial authorities.  All district police forces joined in the search for the pair.”
