In the Clink

July 14, 1967, Neenah-Menasha Daily Northwestern
I let Bastille Day go by without running this feature, but I couldn't let it go by.  Although we are many decades removed from the overcrowding in Twin City jail cells, it still provides a historical look at the old police station that used to reside on Main Street.

  1. I love looking at the incidental items that appear on these newspaper clippings. Regarding the "Hospital Transfers" story: I have to believe this would be a total violation of so-called privacy laws/policies today. It amuses me, in retrospect, that this was considered news in 1967 yet it didn't seem odd at all at the time. How things change!
