News broke on this day in 1919 that William Carlisle, the train robber, had escaped from the penitentiary. He'd broken out on Saturday.
He would not be out for long.
The coal strike, of course, was the headline news. I haven't followed that here on a day by day basis (and indeed, there's been a lot fewer posts here recently), but that was of major national concern.
The coal strike made its appearance in Gasoline Alley on this day in 1919 as well.
New Orleans was photographed.
New Orleans, Louisiana. November 17, 1919
